Last up we have Marianne, SUSO’s new publicity o

Last up we have Marianne, SUSO’s new publicity officer! Here’s what Marianne has to say about being on committee and her time in SUSO:

“Hi everyone my name is Marianne and I am the publicity officer for this year - keeping you up to date on all the social medias 🙂

I am in my second year at Southampton. I play the double bass and study Marine Biology with Oceanography 🐠.

My favourite moment so far in SUSO has been playing in the centenary concert alongside the alumni. It was a very rewarding experience and a success!

This year I am looking forward to being an active member of the committee. I am also looking forward to the various projects that we have planned. Lastly, I cannot forget SUSO socials! Expecting big things social secs:)). Most importantly I am excited to be back in Southampton playing music with great people!

The range of orchestral music available is so vast it’s hard to choose a favourite! However, if I had to choose I would say the Planets by Holst or the Pirates of the Caribbean arrangement by Hans Zimmer - a fun piece to play! x”

Say hi to Aoife, our new orchestral manager! Here’s what Aoife has to say:

“Hello, I’m Aoife, SUSO’s new orchestral manager! I am going into third year studying music and I am a flautist. I have really enjoyed playing in SUSO the past 2 years, highlights include playing Mahler 1 in my first year and being part of a small army of flutes for Strauss Alpine Symphony in 2nd year. I have really missed playing with everyone this summer and I can’t wait to play with SUSO again next year! Some of my favourite composers are Vaughan Williams, Stravinsky and Shostakovich.” 💕🎵

Meet Will our new librarian! Here’s what Will ha

Meet Will our new librarian! Here’s what Will has to say:

“Hi, I’m Will and I am the librarian for SUSO this year. I’m going into the second year of my Chemistry Degree and I play the oboe and viola. I really enjoyed playing in the orchestra last year, especially pre-term, as it was a great chance to meet the orchestra and make good friends to start uni on the right foot. The SUSO 100 concert was also incredible and especially the performance of the Alpine symphony which was a massive undertaking which was well worth it. My favourite piece of classical music is probably the 2nd Brahms string sextet, and as for orchestral music, Shostakovich Symphony No. 10 is a personal favourite. I’m really looking forward to spending another year playing with and improving in SUSO, as well as playing some more great repertoire.”🎶

Next up we have Ollie our new Treasurer! 🎶 Here

Next up we have Ollie our new Treasurer! 🎶 Here’s what Ollie has to say: “Hii! Im Ollie. I’m studying Acoustical Engineering and I am going into my second year. I play both the Tenor & Bass Trombone.

One moment that particularly stands out for me in SUSO was playing Alpine Symphony by Strauss in the Guildhall for the centenary concert this year. Although, playing Pictures at an Exhibition by Mussorgsky last Christmas is definitely up there too!
This year is going to be an interesting year for SUSO, so I really cannot wait to simply be back with everyone, playing some smashing music. Particularly though, I am looking forward to the exciting projects we are planning and being able to be a part of the running of this fantastic orchestra over the coming year.

Being a brass player I like any music by any of the late romantic composers, but my favourite piece has to be Mahler’s 6th Symphony (Tragic), as it is written so well for all sections and sounds amazing.🙂”

Next on our committee introductions, we have Marth

Next on our committee introductions, we have Martha, another member of the social sec team!
Here’s what Martha has to say 🙂 - “I’m Martha and this year I am one of the socials secretaries for SUSO! I’m studying Music and in September will be starting my 2nd year. In SUSO I play Double Bass.

I have a lot of memories from my first year in SUSO, all of them funny and exciting but an overriding memory would have to be the first concert I played with them, being on stage with such a full orchestra for my first time after such hard work was a very exciting feeling!

I’m so looking forward to getting involved in all the exciting plans that we are starting to make for this year and in my role as social sec trying to make the Orchestra an ever more vibrant and friendly place!”💕

Next up we have Toby our new social sec! Here’s

Next up we have Toby our new social sec! Here’s what he has to say:) “Hi! My name is Toby, and I’m one of the social secretaries for this year! I was part of SUSO for my first year, and now, moving on into Year 2 of my Music Degree I hope to carry on the great work of last years committee through my role as a social sec! I would have to say my favourite part of last year was the pre-term week last September. However, an honourable mention does go to the amazing Centenary Concert held in the O2 Guildhall. (It’s very difficult to choose just one moment from last year which I could call my favourite!). I’m really looking forward this year (despite Covid difficulties) to ensuring that all members of SUSO can have a great year and enjoy the organised socials!! Thanks, Toby 🙂”

Next up in our committee introductions we have Ros

Next up in our committee introductions we have Rosie Waddington, our new Vice President! “Hi everyone I’m Rosie and I am your Vice President for this year. I play the violin and I am about to go into my second year of my music degree. My favourite moment of SUSO has got to be the centenary concert we did before lockdown, it was amazing to see all our hard work come together to create this unforgettable concert. This year I am really looking forward to working with Charlie and the rest of the committee to create a fantastic year of music making. We already have a bunch of plans for next year and some fun socials as well. I don’t really have a particular piece of music that is my favourite but I love all film music and The Planets, I also love playing Brahms, Elgar and Vaughan Williams.” 💕

First up in our new committee introductions we hav

First up in our new committee introductions we have our president Charlie Mann! “I’m Charlie and I’m the president of SUSO! I play the French Horn and I’m going into my third year of my Music degree.

I have had so many amazing moments in SUSO so far, and I simply cannot choose one! My top two have to be playing Strauss’ Alpine Symphony this year in the Guildhall, and playing Mahler’s First Symphony last summer term.

I’m really excited to be President this year! I have a great committee and I know we are going to have some great concerts with fantastic music. I am also looking forward to some different projects we have planned, and a tour to finish the season off.

I don’t have a single favourite piece of music, but I love anything Mahler, Shostakovich or Rachmaninoff!”
