The City Wind Orchestra is a community wind ensemble who rehearse and perform in and around the City of London. Formed in  2009, it has attracted players from all over London and from a range of musical backgrounds. After an extended break due to COVID 19the orchestra has been reformed with old and new members. The City Wind Orchestra is a not-for-profit organisation.

The City Wind Orchestra is committed to performing original works for the medium. Since 2009 the cornerstone repertoire from America, Asia and Europe has been performed. With a rich heritage of wind music in the United Kingdom, many works have been performed with the ambition to continue to do so for forthcoming concerts. Other concerts have reflected particular places, people or musical periods.

The CWO is equally as committed to producing concerts which are engaging with the audiences that support them. Works by contemporary composers are often sharply contrasted with lighter musical styles.
