Directed by music teacher and professional cellist, Cat Jones (B.Mus(Hons), AMusA, DipPerfArts), the orchestra is unique in its opportunities for soloists, quartets, chamber ensembles and visiting artist workshops.

This year will be conducted by Sebastian Phlox, a local Hills composer and conducting in his second year as a student at the Adelaide Conservatorium.

This season’s repertoire includes a wide variety of pieces, including classical, rock, jazz and experimental music. The orchestra is also looking forward to showcasing new compositions and arrangements by local composers.
