Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra live in Exeter

Experience Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra live on September 22nd

Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra (BSO) will perform at the University Great Hall, Exeter on September 22nd, 2026. The BSO is recognised as one of the UK’s leading symphony orchestras, with a repertoire spanning over 130 years. Historically rooted in the Romantic tradition, the orchestra frequently performs core classical works alongside contemporary compositions and commissions, demonstrating a commitment to both established masters and emerging talent. They are known for a rich, warm string sound and dynamic interpretations.

The University of Exeter’s Great Hall forms part of the historic Streatham Campus. Originally opened in 1955, it was designed by Sir Leslie Martin and Peter Moro, architects also involved in the Royal Festival Hall in London. The Great Hall is noted for its modernist architectural style and acoustic properties specifically designed for musical performances and large gatherings. It serves as a central venue for university ceremonies, public lectures and cultural events. The hall underwent significant refurbishment in 2018 to improve accessibility and enhance its facilities while preserving its original character. It accommodates approximately 400 attendees.
