1979 UK PHILIPS (9109 231) FIRST PRESSING OF THE PORTSMOUTH SINFONIA'S FINAL LP
ONCE PLAYED AND DELIVERING FLAWLESS SOUND THROUGHOUT
The Portsmouth Sinfonia was an orchestra founded by a group of students at the Portsmouth School of Art in 1970. The Sinfonia had an unusual entrance requirement, in that players had to either be non-musicians, or if a musician, play an instrument that was entirely new to them.
Among the founding members was one of their teachers, English composer Gavin Bryars.
The orchestra started as a one-off, tongue-in-cheek performance art ensemble but became a cultural phenomenon over the following ten years, with concerts, record albums, a film and a hit single. They last performed publicly in 1979
