On 12 and 26 February 2024, the MSO has open rehearsals! An open rehearsal is the perfect opportunity to feel how it is to play in the MSO. Are you (maybe) interested? Definitely come by and have a try.

If you are planning to come, please notify us at info@mso.utwente.nl, and we will make sure to have your music ready. If you do not have an instrument, send us an email and we will see what we can do for you.

We just finished our winter program and are now preparing for the summer, which means: now is the perfect opportunity to join the orchestra! You can even join the concert trip to Copenhagen!

Feel free to join the open rehearsal, even if you are not sure or just want to watch. It is on 6 March at 19.30 in the Agora, Vrijhof, on the campus (De Veldmaat 5, 7522 NM Enschede). Please send a mail (so we can print the music for you) to info@mso.utwente.nl. For more information see also the play with us page.

Last concerts we had to say goodbye to our conductor, Peter Bogaert. Peter guided us for 7 years and we had a lot of fun with him.
This year we will start under the direction of a new conductor, Hanrich Claassen. We are looking forward to our new collaboration and the coming season!
