It is the only professional orchestra in the English county of West Sussex. Founded in 1926, the orchestra was the first municipal orchestra in Britain. The WSO's principal conductor (1997 to present) is John S Gibbons.[1] The orchestra is led by Julian Leaper, who also leads the City of London Sinfonia.[2] As of 2008, the orchestra was made up of around 55-60 musicians.[3] The orchestra plays at the Assembly Hall in Worthing, which according to the WSO's principal conductor, John Gibbons, has some of the finest acoustics in Europe.[4] Notable musicians to have played with the WSO at the Assembly Hall include Julian Lloyd Webber,[5][6] and Nicola Benedetti.[7] The WSO also accompanies competitors in the Sussex International Piano Competition.[8] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.worthingtheatres.co.uk/WorthingSymphonyOrchestra/AboutJohnGibbons/|title=About John Gibbons|publisher=Worthing Theatres|accessdate=11 January 2012}} 2. ^Epsom & Ewell Borough Council website|Accessed 2011-05-15 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1027567/Baton-hatches-earplugs-The-BBC-launch-talent-celebrity-conductor.html|title=Baton down the hatches and find the earplugs: The BBC is about to launch a talent show to find a celebrity conductor|publisher=Daily Mail|date=20 June 2008|accessdate=11 January 2012}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.theatrestrust.org.uk/news/show/2680-save-our-theatres-case-for-worthing-assembly-hall|title=Save Our Theatres: Case for Worthing Assembly Hall|publisher=The Theatres Trust|date=2 April 2011|accessdate=11 January 2012}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.julianlloydwebber.com/news.asp|title=Upcoming Concerts|publisher=Julian Lloyd Webber|accessdate=11 January 2012}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.worthingherald.co.uk/lifestyle/what-s-on/review_family_film_sport_concert_1_3401177|title=Review: Family Film & Sport Concert|publisher=Worthing Herald|accessdate=11 January 2012}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.musicweb-international.com/SandH/2009/jan-jun09/worthing0803.htm|title=Seen and Heard Concert Review|publisher=Music Web International|accessdate=11 Jan 2012}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://thelatest.co.uk/brighton/2013/04/09/worthing-plays-host-to-the-second-sussex-international-piano-competition/|title=Worthing plays host to the second Sussex International Piano Competition|publisher=The Latest|first=Richard=last=Amey|accessdate=9 April 2013}} See also
