A full-size symphony orchestra consisting of around 80 musicians, the Forest Philharmonic Orchestra performs wonderful classical music alongside fantastic soloists to thousands of people. They also work with young musicians in the local Waltham Forest community, providing open rehearsals and the opportunity to experience the excitement of being a part of a large orchestra. Forest Philharmonic Explorers provides two hour workshops linked to Forest Philharmonic concerts where adults and families explore and create music together.
