Enjoy the orchestral sounds of a large live Palm Court Orchestra with music from the seaside and spa concert halls heard on holidays of yesteryear as the PCO perform the evocative archive music from these heady days surrounded by palms and aspidistras!
Recognising the enjoyment people have when listening to light orchestral music, the Promenade Concert Orchestra was formed in 2007, by professional clarinettist, Howard Rogerson, to provide the opportunity for Morecambe and the Bay area to also enjoy such music. The Promenade Concert Orchestra has developed a highly acclaimed and successful series of concerts at the Platform in Morecambe and has subsequently taken programmes to places such as Grange-over-Sands, Settle, Ribble Valley, Chorley and Lancaster Grand Theatre.
The light orchestral music performed covers the entire range from Palm Court, ballroom and cafe music; to shows, radio, TV and film music; the Viennese and ballet repertoire, and popular classics and opera. The PCO has also commissioned new works.
The orchestral members are all professional, semi-professional or excellent amateur musicians from the Kendal, Lancaster and Morecambe areas who are engaged in working in several local orchestras.
After seventeen highly successful seasons, receiving high critical acclaim, and the ‘Sunshine Culture Award’ and Highly Commended ‘Entertainment Award’ in 2014, the Promenade Concert Orchestra presents its 18th season of four light music concerts of ‘Music for You’ at the Platform.
