OUO in the press:

"Surely the best university orchestra in the world?"

Toby Purser, Head of Conducting, Royal College of Music

"…the OUO demonstrated an impressive solidarity and skill…the orchestra played with fiery potency…"

"… imperceptibly and inevitably the audience was reeled in…"

"…remarkable for blazing brass effects, wind solos… and thrilling string playing…"

"Even though we cannot fully communicate in the same language, music transcends the border and we can communicate together. It was amazing."
