King John Orchestra

The KJO is an amateur symphony orchestra initially formed in 2006 by parents of Kings College School and  St John’s College School. We enjoy playing a variety of repertoire – our most recent concert programme was Carwithen’s Suffolk Suite, Grieg’s Piano Concerto, and Brahms Symphony No 2.

We rehearse during term time, with an annual concert in late November. Rehearsals are 7:45 pm – 9:30 pm on Mondays, approximately fortnightly, during the autumn and spring terms at Byron House, 63 Grange Rd., Cambridge, and during the summer term at King’s College School, West Rd., Cambridge. There is parking in the school grounds.

If you are interested in joining the orchestra, please contact md@kingjohnorchestra.org.uk – we currently have vacancies for bass trombone, tuba, double bass and cellos.
