Welcome to the official website of
Negotiations are continuing to bring the Sinfonia audio catalogue back to the public. We will only do it if it can be done right. A half-hearted reissue would not do us justice... And there are other exciting ideas being explored.
The Sinfonia continues to be a vibrant presence in the culture - grabbed by everyone. (Sometimes even grabbed with our permission!) • The Tonight Show's Jimmy Fallon discovered our unique music and ran a segment on it! • The movie "Everything Everywhere All At Once" used our unique music in a key scene! (And won 7 Oscars!) • Major new documentary about Eno features sequence about his work with the Sinfonia! • Infiniti-Nissan used our unique music in a TV commercial for one of its new cars! • A new film "Escape" with Martin Scorsese attached as producer requested to license our music for its opening sequence!
Read this rave review in the Washington Post! It is an in-depth, 232-page definitive history and guide to the Portsmouth Sinfonia! Though there have been vast amounts written about us before - in newspapers, magazines and books - this is the first time that we have been the subject of an entire book. So we're very excited. It is a book that examines the Sinfonia through every imaginable prism. The music, the fun, the wild stories - and the underlying socio-cultural currents that led to the creation, nurturing and success of the orchestra. The book is edited by two highly-respected American academics in the sphere of experimental music - Professor Christopher M. Reeves and Aaron Walker. It contains extensive recollections of key members, a large treasure trove of previously unseen photographs and rare memorabilia. The book is published by Soberscove Press. It is available in select bookshops and through online retailers such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
