What's on

A viola player who is a wheelchair user is at the forefront, surrounded by other musicians and audience members. All of the musicians are wearing white and everyone is dimly lit with a red hue.

We create more than just concerts

Our live shows are bold, beautiful, sense-heightening experiences that will challenge your preconceptions. 

Discover what happens when we play with form, experiment with genres and shatter musical boundaries.

We believe the orchestra is for everybody, so dive in - you’re invited.

If you’ve never seen Paraorchestra then find a way to change that - it’s a mesmerising experience that explodes every convention about what a live musical performance looks and feels like
