Sinfonia Cymru

Sinfonia Cymru is a dynamic music organisation, dedicated to supporting the early careers of outstanding young professional musicians. Unafraid to challenge the status quo, we give musicians the opportunity to cultivate a wide range of skills and we put our players at the heart of our creative programming. Today, musicians need a much wider skill-set and a more open approach to music-making than previous generations and we help our players develop this. We aim to nurture classically-trained musicians who are exceptionally talented, artistically curious, challenging, open and engaging, and who will become role models for other young players.

We provide high quality concerts for audiences across Wales and beyond - our core work includes chamber orchestral performances, chamber music recitals, cutting-edge contemporary chamber music, cross-genre projects, and schools’ projects. Notable successes in the last year include two BBC Radio 3 broadcasts, a concert tour with Sheku Kanneh-Mason and a performance of Tosca in Abu Dhabi with Bryn Terfel.
