An evening with the NUS Symphony Orchestra: young and ardent music lovers bring to life an impressive repertoire, including world-famous works like Rossini's 'The Barber of Seville' and extracts from Steven Spielberg's Oscar-winning 'Schindler's List'.

Dearest NUSSO,

We will be having a picnic on Friday, 22 August 2008, during the Singapore Fireworks Festival 2008. Instead of buying tickets, however, we plan to find a nice spot to picnic and chill as we await the explosions.

Farid proposes we reach earlier than 8pm, preferrable around 4pm to "chope" (secure) a good viewing area.

Farid: "Isn't 4pm v early? yes i tink so too. we will buy food and dinner together, play cards, etc."

Want to try out playing in an orchestra? Want to make new friends? Want to eat good food?

Come to NUSSO's Welcome Tea! 

We cordially invite you to come interact with us over food and music on Wednesday, 20 August 2008, at 6.30pm at CFA Studios.

Join in the fun of music-making with us! See you there!

We will be having a NUSSO chalet at Downtown East, checking in 3 Aug (Sunday) and checking out 5 Aug (Tuesday)!!

There will be a BARBEQUE on the evening of 3 Aug (Sunday) organised by our dear welfare officer Siewhoon. And on 4 Aug we will be celebrating Mr Lim's birthday with a dinner! So please come join us!!

The details are as follows:

Every year members of NUSSO take a break from the large orchestral setting to form smaller chamber groups. Chamber music, set in an intimate atmosphere as the term "chamber" suggests, provides a healthy respite for both the musicians and the audience.

‘Sturm und Drum’ refers to musical technique of punctuating quiet passages with sudden outbursts of sound much like bursts of thunder in a storm. This eclectic experience promises to delight the senses with works by Beethoven, Sibelius, Rimsky-Korsakov, Paganini and Hindemith; featuring Singapore-premieres of showpieces performed by the renowned viola soloist, Anatoly Zelinsky.
