Past concerts - and the orchestra's archives

On these pages, thanks to the efforts of the our archivist and viola player Jonathan Somervell, you can find details of all the Westmorland Orchestra's concerts back to its foundation in 1945, as well as lists of the office-holders who have helped to run the orchestra over the past sixty years.

The archive has four sections:

1. A list of all concerts, arranged in date order, with venues, music played, conductors, leaders and soloists.
Sources for the information are also listed, most of which are preserved in the orchestra's archive.

General conclusions and statistics

2. Works Performed, alphabetically listed by composer, with dates and soloists.

3. Soloists and Choirs with whom the orchestra has played, with concert dates and works performed.

4. Principal Office Holders from 1945 to the present.
