THE WORLD’S WORST ORCHESTRA?
A. When you gather a group of eager but untrained dreamers to play a football game
against professionals, or put on a spectacular concert to save the local animal shelter,
those amateurs heroically exceed the expectations of even the harshest critics. That,
at least, is how it goes in the movies. But in real life when you get a bunch of amateurs
together to perform a skilled task, such as playing an instrument, you usually end up with
something like the Portsmouth Sinfonia, an experimental orchestra from the 1970s, which
became famous for performing what could fairly be called terribly bad music.
B. The Portsmouth Sinfonia was the brainchild of Gavin Bryars, a lecturer at the Portsmouth
School of Art. In May 1970, he put on a three-day talent contest, including all sorts
of acts, from comedians to singers. Bryars named it Portsmouth Sinfonia. The
Portsmouth Sinfonia consisted of 13 members who were students with little musical
experience. Unsurprisingly they didn’t win the contest. Yet, encouraged by the audience’s
enthusiasm for their initial attempt, the Portsmouth Sinfonia continued to play, growing in
size over the following years.
C. Their policy was that anyone, of any skill level, could join. Professional musicians could
be selected for the Portsmouth Sinfonia only if they agreed to play an instrument that was
entirely new to them. It was imperative that all members attended the practice sessions.
Despite working hard, their very limited musical skills inevitably meant that the orchestra’s
performances lacked harmony, with plenty of off-notes and random blasts of noise.
The world-renowned composer Brian Eno, who joined the Sinfonia as a clarinet player
(he’d never played that particular instrument before), said that the members ranked “from
geniuses to the extremely incompetent”.

D. The Portsmouth Sinfonia signed its first record deal in 1973, and soon their first album
was released. Ads declared the Portsmouth Sinfonia to be “indisputably, the worst
orchestra in the world”, and yet the album became a minor hit. It was produced by Brian
Eno himself, whose reputation boosted sales significantly. In 1974, the orchestra even
played to an audience of thousands at London’s Royal Albert Hall. This performance was
later released as a live album. The Portsmouth Sinfonia stopped playing six years later.
It’s rumoured that the members of the orchestra simply got too good at playing their
instruments.
