Formed from a core of 15 principal players, and conductor Nicholas Collon, Aurora combines a string quintet with a wind quintet, brass soloists, percussion and keyboard. The result is a flexible ensemble which has been championing the wonderful and varied repertoire of the 20th century alongside intimate performances of well-known masterpieces and revealing arrangements of large-scale symphonic works.

The group's fresh approach to concert-giving has attracted much critical acclaim:

'Stravinsky's glorious music played, by Aurora Orchestra, as if it has been delivered straight from Heaven'

Wherever we are and whoever we are collaborating with, ultimately Aurora is about good music and passionate, talented musicians. We hope you'll join us and be a part of it.
