Sinfonia Orchestra.

Age: 9 – 12 (approximate guide only)

NYSO Sinfonia enables younger students at a critical stage of their musical development to make connections between all the different musical elements coming at them, and to experience how the theory, aural and physical response to rhythm all come together at the point where performance begins.

NYSO Sinfonia residencies introduce ensemble skills and incorporate Kodaly musicianship and Dalcroze Eurhythmics sessions linked to the repertoire to develop the specific skills needed for ensemble playing.


Residency dates 2025:

Spring: 13 – 17 April 2025 – Stamford School, Oswald Elliott Hall, East Street, Stamford, PE9 1QF

Summer: 14 – 22 August – Stamford School, Oswald Elliott Hall, East Street, Stamford, PE9 1QF
