University Orchestra Maastricht

Over University Orchestra Maastricht

Musicians are mainly students or employees form the Maastricht University or Hogeschool zuyd although it is not mandatory to be connected to one of those institutions to become a member. The music that is rehearsed ranges from baroque (Bach, Händel) to fairly modern music (Borodin and Stravinsky) and is always suitable for symphonic amateur orchestra.

At least two concerts are given each year, usually in January and the beginning of June. In the past several years, different cooperation projects have been attended resulting in exchange trips to, for instance, Strasbourg and Mannheim. The orchestra (conducted by Raymond Spons since 2005) has, just as the university itself, gained an international character. At least one third of all members come from abroad. Therefore, during rehearsals different languages like Dutch, English, German, French, or Limburgs are spoken.
