About the Solent Symphony Orchestra
The Solent Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1992 by a number of forward thinking musicians. Given the city of Portsmouth’s rich cultural heritage, the need for a first class symphony orchestra was recognised and so the SSO was established.
Since its inception, the orchestra has provided a forum for local musicians to perform in historic venues as part of a regular concert series. Our current musicians range in profession from teachers to students, marines to computer programmers.
