The orchestras began in 1999, with the formation of the YPTO for young musicians. It rapidly became so successful that a senior orchestra, the CAVMS orchestra, was formed in September 2000. In 2010 we made the move to our new home at St Cyres School, Penarth, where the orchestra currently rehearse.
The concept behind the orchestra is a partnership between the very best in music educationists and professional musicians. Brian Weir conducts the Orchestra with the help of a first-class team of instrumental tutors and involving the widest possible repertoire available. Professional performing musicians visit regularly and make a valuable contribution.
Times
Wednesdays evenings 6.30-8.30 during term time.
Costs
All of the CAVMS ensembles cost £50 per term (Cheques payable to
YPTO). There is a £10 reduction for additional family
members.
