Hundreds of musicians will come together on 21st June as part of Make Music Day, to form a huge performance in Aberystwyth.

Everyone is welcome to join in with our exciting concert, whether a seasoned professional or an absolute beginner, with any wind orchestra instrument or just your voice. 

We perform a wide range of popular music, including well-known folk songs and classical arrangements. All sheet music is provided free for all performers, either printed or digitally.

The Big Summer Wind Orchestra and Choir is co-ordinated by the same team who deliver the Big Christmas Wind Orchestra and Choir. Since 2012, we have been running a huge ensemble with hundreds of participants every year, and now we want to grow throughout the rest of the year too.

We are very pleased to collaborate with Making Music to arrange a really special event for Make Music Day. This international celebration of music making sees hundreds of concerts in places all around the world, from enormous concert halls to libraries, and everywhere in between. Our enormous one-off annual events are the perfect way to showcase the joys of music making and hopefully encourage more people into music making all year round.

We usually perform a range of well known music for up to two hours at a central London location.  This will include some very well known folk songs, alongside classical favourites - with all muisc selected so that everyone can join in.

Any musician is welcome, regardless of ability, and no rehearsal or preparation (other than an instrument or voice) is required. Performers who don't usually make music in a band or choir are especially welcome.  We provide all of the sheet music in either paper or digital format, so that it is accessible to everyone - just let us know if you'll need any adaptations e.g. large print.
