Sheffield Philharmonic Orchestra

Sheffield, United Kingdom

The Sheffield Philharmonic Orchestra (SPO) was established in 1945 by Herman Lindars as the Sheffield Amateur Symphony Orchestra. Based in Victoria Hall, Sheffield, it has been a cornerstone of the city's cultural scene for over 75 years. The orchestra draws musicians from across Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, and Derbyshire, and performs five concerts annually in various notable venues, including Sheffield City Hall and Birmingham Symphony Hall. The SPO has a rich history of collaboration with internationally acclaimed soloists and has participated in music festivals in Crete, Malta, and Sardinia. Committed to supporting local talent, many of its younger members have advanced to prestigious UK conservatoires. The current Musical Director, George Morton, continues to lead the 80-member ensemble, which includes professionals from diverse fields. The orchestra's repertoire spans classical symphonies to contemporary works by local composers.
