#PLAYALONGSYMPHONY
A DIFFERENT SYMPHONY, EVERY FRIDAY
*UPDATE MAY 2021: We have decided to stop running #playalongsymphony for now.
Let's go enjoy playing IRL!*
Open and free to all, #playalongsymphony was born out of a need for
orchestral musicians to connect and play together.

How did it start?
Originally devised by Seb Philpott, Jessie has been running #playalongsymphony since July 2020.
It started in lockdown when us musicians were all desperate to play together and keep fit, and we're still going!
​
How do you pick the repertoire?
Repertoire is chosen via a twitter poll every second Monday on Jessie's Twitter Page. The winner and 2nd place pieces are then played on the following two Fridays. Click here to vote, or below!
