Sevenoaks Symphony Orchestra
We are celebrating more than eighty years of bringing live orchestral music to Sevenoaks and the surrounding area. Continuing to grow in size and popularity, we are proud to attract some of the finest young solo artists who are carving out impressive careers on the world stage. Recent performances to sellout audiences have firmly established our reputation for excellent musicianship and challenging repertoire - see reactions below to our most recent season of subscription concerts.
Each season we put on three traditional concerts, mostly of 19th and 20th century masterpieces, and a Family Concert each October. During the 2025 Sevenoaks Summer Festival we will joined forces with the Sevenoaks Philharmonic choir for a very successful concert of music by Ralph Vaughan Williams and Arnold Bax.
Details of the concerts for our 2026-27 season will be available soon. If you would like to receive information from us, or have questions, please see our Get in touch page.
If you wish to attend our three traditional symphony concerts in November, March and May you can save money by buying a Season Ticket once these are available

Recent audience reactions
“What a super concert! The orchestral pieces were a delight...and the soloist was sublime.”
“We attended the first concert of your new season and were totally gripped throughout by the skill and power of the orchestra and, of course, also by the youthful magic and energy of your soloist Michail Andreev...he and the orchestra simply made the music sing...”
“...my favourite performance by SSO...Nielsen’s Helios Overture was spectacularly well played and a
powerful and dazzling performance of Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No 2 by young Cypriot soloist Christos Fountos.”
“What a delight! Sunday’s concert was to the proverbial ‘next level’.”
“The string section tiptoed and fizzed in turn, offering great accuracy even when working against the
backdrop of the resounding brass passages. I was totally gripped throughout."
