"You can't play all the notes? Well, enjoy the ones you can play!"

Guest conductor Stefan Defilet

Join Us

You can be sure of a warm welcome at the NFO. We're a friendly bunch of amateur musicians whose focus is very much on the fun of making music as a group. At the same time, we strive for high standards and to do justice to the music that we play together.

We need ...

We'd love to hear from you whatever instrument you play, ​but we're particularly in need of STRINGS, TRUMPETS and TROMBONES.

Am I good enough?

As a rough rule of thumb, if you can play to Grade 5 standard as a minimum, you'll probably be fine. Don't worry if you're rusty - there's nothing like regular playing to get you back in the swing of things. If you're in doubt, get in touch and have a chat about it.

Get in Touch

We rehearse weekly on Wednesday evenings from 19.30 to 21.30 at Hordle Memorial Hall, Hordle Lane, Hordle, SO41 0FB
