Last but not least...this is Kieran! Our jolly president!

"
Hi there, I'm Kieran and I am SUSO president for 2021/22! I am going into my 3rd year of my Music with French degree, having been in the orchestra since I joined the university in my first year! You will usually find me in the Lower brass section, with Trombone and Tuba being my main instruments. I have previously been Social Secretary and Publicity Officer, and I can't wait for what the year has in store for SUSO!

This is Rosie, our Vice President!

“Hi I’m Rosie, a 3rd year music student. This coming academic year will be my third year in Suso and my second year as Vice President on the committee. One of my favourite moments of Suso was when we put on a summer concert at the end of this year (and of course the after party that followed)! Putting on this concert during the pandemic was definitely a challenge and was so rewarding and provided so many memories that I’ll treasure. This year we have so many exciting things planned for the orchestra including a few massive projects! I am so excited to work with Kieran and the rest of committee this coming academic year to make these upcoming projects happen, covid permitting of course! Suso and VP love, Rosie xxx"

"Hello everyone, I’m Thomas, I’ve been playing percussion in SUSO for four years but am now playing cello. I’ve had a great time in SUSO so far and even though I’m terrible at remembering what pieces it is I’ve played; I do remember enjoying it all. My favourite orchestral experience was playing Carmina Burana by Carl Orff. As well as playing in orchestra, I enjoy sports, gym, computer games, singing, formula 1 and designing steel-concrete composite highway bridges. Also, Come On Tour!"

"Hi, I’m Owyn, joining the mighty publicity team with Mikey, the other tenor trombone. This is my second year in SUSO, and I’m really looking forward to joining the committee and helping this year run as smoothly as possible. My favourite classical piece would probably be either Scheherazade by Rimsky-Korsakov or Mahler 5, so I can’t wait to play it with you all next term!"

Here is our orchestral manager George Webb: "Hi I

"Hi I'm George, a 2nd year Acoustics with Music student! I play the bassoon and this will be my second year in SUSO. I am very excited to finally be playing in person again, and hope I can help to make everything run as smoothly as possible behind the scenes!"

Meet Ollie our Treasurer! He is the one who keeps the books in check!

Hi I’m Ollie, I study Acoustical Engineering and this will be my third year in SUSO. I play bass trombone and am looking forward to the brassy repertoire this year. My favourite piece is Mahler 6 😀.

Meet social sec 2/2 Will! Together with Charlie they will bring us some great socials this year!

Will Shirras
Hi everyone, I'm Will, one of your social secretaries for this year. I'm a third year Chemistry student and I've been in SUSO throughout my time here. I'm looking forward to welcoming and integrating everyone into the friendly orchestra community. I've loved my time in SUSO and I hope I'll be able to help everyone enjoy theirs as well by planning fun socials throughout the year. I loved playing the Alpine Symphony for the centenary concert, and I also love Shostakovich string quartets.

Meet Charlie, 1/2 of our social sec dynamic duo!

Meet Charlie, 1/2 of our social sec dynamic duo!

Hi! I’m Charlie, a 4th year music student. I have been in SUSO for 3 years now and I was President last year! I loved being on committee so much I decided to stay on for another year… fun fact, this will be my third year in a row as a social sec on a music committee! I love how friendly SUSO is, and have made my closest friends through the orchestra so I’m looking forward to holding lots of fun socials and enabling others to do the same. My favourite moment in SUSO has to be a tie between the Centenary concert in March 2020 where we played Strauss’ Alpine Symphony, and our summer concert in June 2021 where after a stressful year of covid we finally managed to hold a concert again; the feeling of getting back on stage after so long was incredible! My favourite piece of music is Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2, it’s just divine, but as a horn player I also love most heavily romantic music.

Next up! Meet me...? The publicity officer

Hi, I am Mikey, this will be my 4th year in SUSO and I am very excited to be a part of the committee and getting to design some snazzy posters for the concerts this year! I play the trombone and am looking forward to the brass heavy rep this year! My favourite orchestral piece is Tchaik 6.

This is Emily our librarian!

“Hey!! I’m Emily and I’m a 2nd year music student. This is my second year in SUSO and my first year on committee as the librarian. For me, the best part of SUSO is being able to meet and play with so many talented musicians, something that I really missed during lockdown. My favourite SUSO moment was being part of the first concert in over a year due to covid and playing Pirates of the Caribbean as I love playing film scores. I also love playing Vaughan Williams and Mahler, and I am a huge fan of the ballet so Stravinsky’s “The Firebird” is a favourite. Here’s to a year with (hopefully) some more live music !! Suso love 🙂
Emily 🧡”

Meet Rebekah our Outreach officer! Hi everyone!

Meet Rebekah our Outreach officer!

Hi everyone! I'm Bekah a 3rd year music student and I am this year's outreach officer! Suso is an incredible way to make friends at uni and I'm so excited to be able to play with amazing musicians again after the last year! Playing the Alpine Symphony just before the pandemic started stands out as a highlight of my time at uni, but my favourite memory has to be baby suso! I'm so excited to organise it this year and hopefully we can inspire the next generation of musicians in Southampton and show how important music is for young people.

Meet Andrew our Tour Sec! Here is a little he had

Meet Andrew our Tour Sec! Here is a little he had to say about his time at SUSO so far:

"Hi, I am Andrew and I’m a second year EEE student. I play violin and this will be my second year in SUSO. This year I am Tour Secretary, and I will be planning a tour to Europe for the orchestra to go on this academic year, which will be great since the orchestra hasn’t been able to tour for several years now. Because of COVID, I haven’t been able to do much with the orchestra during the previous year. However, having the final concert in June was great to take part in and I have found the community of the orchestra really great as well. My favourite piece is Rienzi Overture by Wagner."

One year ago today we were lucky enough to perform

One year ago today we were lucky enough to perform at O2 Guildhall Southampton to celebrate our 100th anniversary as a society representing the University! For many of us, this was the last time we attended a live concert whether we were in the orchestra or the audience, so this day has had long-lasting memories to reminisce over. The opportunity to perform this concert, and in particular the Alpine Symphony, was truly spectacular!🎵

We thought we would celebrate this occasion by sharing some photos of this very special day! More are available on our website under the gallery section. In addition to this, some of the committee members have been busy writing a blog page for you to relive the experience, and to learn and follow what happened to put this event on. It is accessible on our website here👉 https://suso.susu.org/index.php/centenary-concert-blog/.

Finally, if you would like to hear the recording of SUSO at this concert, then please contact us through our Facebook page or email us at suso@soton.ac.uk. We look forward to welcoming you to one of our future concerts, so do please make sure to check our social media pages for more information soon!🎶
