Hello, We are underscore

Underscore is an exciting and hugely needed project, bringing a high level of accessible performance to areas of arts deprivation. Due to funding priorities these areas have become more and more numerous over the last few years, with orchestral music, both from a listening and performing perspective, in severe danger of becoming the preserve only of those with significant financial resources. I have every confidence that Underscore will be an invaluable (and scalable) organisation in the fight not only to prevent the atrophy of orchestral music, but to bring it to the reach of ever more diverse performers and audiences

The triple-armed establishment of Bradley Wilson’s “Underscore Orchestra” including outreach, collective and hubs is a welcome and much needed addition to music-making and bringing music to those who do not have access to music in the Midlands. The orchestra is made up of global majority students and professionals from the region. This is one to watch, the “Underscore Orchestra” is already making an impact where it is needed most.

It is a fun and exciting orchestral experience that is inclusive of everyone.

It’s a great opportunity to be part of a diverse ensemble and play a variety of interesting pieces of music.
