Sinfonia es una orquesta no audicionada, abierta a músicos de todos los niveles, desde principiantes hasta avanzados. Con un ambiente muy relajado y divertido, es perfecto para el músico que busca un ambiente amigable para tocar buena música con otras personas. Nuestro repertorio emocionante y diverso abarca una amplia gama de estilos y géneros, incluidas piezas clásicas, partituras de películas, teatro musical y popurrí pop. Los ensayos se llevan a cabo todos los lunes en la Sala de Ensayos del Departamento de Música. Después de cada ensayo vamos al Old Bar, y con muchos eventos sociales de Sinfonia como boliche, laser tag y viajes al cine, hay muchas oportunidades para que conozcas a tus compañeros de juego.

Debido a la situación con respecto a la pandemia de Covid-19, actualmente no estamos seguros de cuándo comenzarán los ensayos en el año académico 2020/21. ¡Asegúrate de unirte a nuestro grupo de Facebook para recibir actualizaciones sobre ensayos y eventos sociales! También habrá algunas redes sociales en línea de Sinfonia y LUUMS más amplias para que te involucres. ¡Esperamos contar con su presencia!

Abigail Yates

Gerente

Abi es estudiante de Física de segundo año de Wolverhampton en West Midlands. Tocó el saxofón desde que tenía 9 años y decidió recoger el oboe cuando tenía 15 años para poder tocar en orquestas y bandas. Desde entonces, ha tocado en muchos conjuntos y ha disfrutado mucho tocar en LUUMS Sinfonia and Concert Band. Abi está entusiasmada de asumir su papel de gerente para asegurarse de que Sinfonia siga siendo un ambiente divertido y acogedor para jugadores de todos los niveles este año. ¡Ella también tiene planes para algunos eventos sociales divertidos para que los miembros de la orquesta se conozcan! Además de LUUMS, Abi es miembro de la Sociedad de Física y participa en la Radio para Estudiantes.

Chris Field

Conductor

Chris is a Physics MRes student (previously BSc Biochemistry) at the University of Leeds. Though he started his musical journey with the guitar, at age 6, he started playing what would become his main instrument, the clarinet, a year later. Since then, he has also dabbled in playing piano, bass guitar, bass clarinet and drums. Throughout his time in Leeds, Chris has become increasingly involved with LUUMS, joining Sinfonia in his first year, SWO in his second and Concert Band in his third, and he now feels it’s time to give back to this wonderful society! You can usually find him hiding somewhere quiet with his headphones on or sat outside Roger Stevens watching the ducks.

Matthew Boucher

Conductor

Matt is a second year MEng Medical Engineering student from an ancient medieval town in East Kent, which for many is the true home of the Sandwich, and who’s post-COVID grand re-Opening somehow made it onto the BBC this summer! He first started playing the piano when he was 6 years old, and after enjoying recorder playing in his school band, took up clarinet! After finally having enough teeth to play the trumpet, in secondary school he particularly enjoyed marching with the CCF fife and drum corps, going on tour to France, Sardinia, Spain and Portugal with the Orchestra and having a blast playing in the Jazz Band! Just before taking GCSEs he got his Grade 8 clarinet, and is really enjoying the life that lies beyond in LUUMS! When Matt’s not rehearsing with the Symphonic Wind Orchestra, Sinfonia, Concert Band or Brass Band, he can often be found attempting to run a ‘casual’ marathon, ‘inter-city’ cycling across the north, or of course, down one of Leeds’ many great pubs after rehearsals! He is very much looking forward to organising some great sponsorship deals for the society and arranging some epic fundraising challenges in support of the society and our national and local official charities!

Abi McGlone

Manager

Abi is in her 4th year studying for a Masters in Physics. She is from a small town in Norfolk in the East of England and started playing flute at the age of 12. Joining Sinfonia in second year, and Concert Band in third year, Abi found LUUMS a great environment to connect with people over the recent lockdowns. As she was not part of LUUMS from the start of her degree, Abi is a great example that you can start your LUUMS journey no matter what year you are in. You may also see her playing viola in sinfonia which she picked up aged 15. Abi is keen to keep the welcoming and fun aspect that Sinfonia has had in the last year and will welcome all faces, new and old, with a smile! Other than being a part of LUUMS, Abi is extremely active, enthusiastically participating in the university netball league as well as frequently climbing, running, dancing and going to the gym.
