Vote for 2012-13 programme

Many thanks for all your suggestions for the 2012-13 season. The vote has now closed and results are visible below.

Note that the members vote is just one source of suggestions used by the committee – we also consider suggestions emailed directly to the committee, the audience survey, suggestions from previous years and of course our conductor’s opinion. We can’t guarantee that any of the nominated pieces will actually end up in a programme, but many of the pieces we perform do originate from this vote. Compositions are more likely to be selected if they will attract a larger audience and if they make good use of our resources (full orchestra rather than chamber works).
