Rehearsal Schedule
The Orchestra rehearses on most Fridays between the beginning of September and mid June. Rehearsals are normally held at St Michael’s Church Hall, Blundellsands, located at the corner of St Michael’s Road and Dowhills Road (Postcode L23 8SP). Click here for a map. Rehearsals usually start at 1945; we ask people to arrive by 1930 to allow time to set up and make a prompt start at 1945.
