Performing a regular season of three concerts in Hull's magnificent City Hall, we boast a history of renowned conductors, including national figures such as Sir Henry Wood, founder of the Proms. The orchestra continues to expand and develop; successfully tackling some of the most challenging works of the orchestral repertoire. The story started on June 1881 when a small group of dedicated music lovers gathered at the George Hotel in Hull and proposed the formation of an orchestral music society. With just 27 players, a devoted committee and loyal patrons, the Hull Philharmonic Society was born. The orchestra has more than 80 members drawn from local professional and amateur musicians, and enjoys a broad and loyal audience base. In 1989 we were granted charitable status. With thanks to Williamsons Solicitors who have been supporters of our Young Audience Ticket Scheme through sponsorship. The scheme enables us to introduce our concerts to audiences of the future and enhance regional music education. Williamsons has also provided a secure home for the orchestra’s extensive music library which includes scores notated by Sir Henry Wood.
