Welcome to the most sparkling music association in Leiden, the symphonic wind orchestra Leids Harmonieorkest (Leiden Wind Orchestra).
On June 15 we performed in De Leidse Hout ! The recordings can be played here. The recordings of our previous concert on May 18 are on YouTube.
Our orchestra was founded in 1949 and has been part of Leiden's music culture ever since.
The Leids Harmonieorkest is a podium orchestra, performing a varied repertoire of both classical and modern compositions for wind orchestra.
We generally look for unusual, original and seldomly heard wind pieces for concert band with an aim to contributing to the rediscovery and revival of fantastic music for symphonic band.
We hold regular concerts at various venues in - and sometime out of - Leiden throughout the year.
Listen to our musical new-year greetings on our youtube channel !

Bij ons laatste concert in dit lustrumjaar (18 mei) hebben we de opgeknapte bok in gebruik genomen. Na 40 jaar dienst was de bok versleten, doorgezakt en verveloos. Nu ziet er weer prachtig uit en is zelfs verfraaid met een hek. Het logobord in het hek is geschilderd door Pieter Onderwater.
