SWS warmly welcomes new instrumentalists to join us. We don't hold formal auditions, however our repertoire is typically of an AMEB grade 5 standard or above, as a guide. We recommend that you come along to a rehearsal or two to try the band out, prior to making any commitment.

We rehearse on Wednesdays, normally at Queenwood School for Girls, 47 Mandolong Road, Mosman 2088, entry via Hunter Road gate. Rehearsal time is 7.30pm - 9.30pm.
For the remainder of 2020, we will be rehearsing at an alternative venue. See the Membership page for more details.
