A community orchestra is on the hunt for new members to join weekly classes.
West Dorset Community Orchestra meets every Wednesday during term time. The new term starts on Wednesday, September 11 and is open to people of all ages.
The rehearsals take place in the Christian Fellowship Hall, East Street car park, Bridport from 6.30pm to 7.45pm.
It initially began in 2012, following the discontinuation of the Bridport music centre in 2011 to encourage musicians of all ages to experience playing in a wind band, string group or orchestra.
The orchestra perform a range of music such as film scores, well known classics and underrated pieces.
Concerts are also performed twice a year, one in summer and during the festive period, usually partnering with Bridport-based community choir ‘Local Vocals’ at St John’s Church, West Bay.
The first four rehearsals are free for new members as trial sessions.
