Manchester Camerata's Cameo Orchestra
The Cameo Orchestra provides opportunities for players of all ages and abilities to dust off an instrument and have fun making music together. We usually run two Play Days per season and the music is based on repertoir Manchester Camerata will be playing in a Manchester concert. You'll get expert coaching from Camerata musicians but the idea is to have fun and make friends while developing orchestral technique and sound quality.
