The
Orchestra
The orchestra is made up of the finest players from
Cornwall, Devon and further afield. During the last six years here are
some of the press comments:
‘Cornwall’ and ‘Cornish’
should be synonymous with quality: would the assertion be justified? The
audience gave a resolute ‘thumbs up’ with a lengthy standing
ovation at the end both to encourage the vision and determination of conductor
Ian Hughes and his supporters in creating the orchestra and to show their
appreciation of the players.
The Cornish Sinfonia has done its reputation a power
of good in the past few days. Its members contributed to a fine performance
of the new opera by Russell Pascoe. Just four days later the orchestra
stepped into the breach left by the demise of the Bournemouth Sinfonietta....
Music lovers responded by turning up in large numbers.
