MITCHAM ORCHESTRA

The Mitcham Orchestra is a community orchestra based in the City of Mitcham. ​

​

It has had two previous names:-​

​

• The Bicentenary Seniors Symphony Orchestra 

        Conducted by Graham Abbott (1988)

​

• The Adelaide Metropolitan Orchestra

        Conducted by Mike Kenny (1990-2016)​ 

​

The orchestra took a 1 year hiatus in 1989 while negotiations with the ABC ensued regarding continuing the Bicentennial Orchestra.

​

In 2002 the orchestra became known as the Mitcham Orchestra when support was offered by the Mitcham Council.

​

Tully Brookes became the conductor in 2017 and remains with the orchestra today.
