The Vale Royal String Orchestra was founded in 1993 by Margaret Parks-Smith and David Whalley and rehearses in Appleton Village Hall (WA4 4RT).

The Vale Royal String Orchestra brings together experienced non professional musicians under the direction of a professional conductor. The VRSO plays primarily for the love of music and to support local charities.
We have two rehearsal periods from January to March and April to June, each ending with a concert. Please click on the links above to find details of our next concerts and rehearsal schedule.
If you are a experienced string player please contact us and come to a rehearsal.
Annual Subscription is currently set at £90.00 to cover general costs with concert profits, after direct costs, to charities.
Sponsorship is very welcome.
