The Portsmouth Sinfonia was an English orchestra founded by a group of students at the Portsmouth School of Art in 1970. The Sinfonia was generally open to anyone and ended up drawing players who were either people without musical training or, if they were musicians, ones that chose to 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 10 years, with concerts, record albums, a film and a hit single. They last performed publicly in 1979.

  • Die Portsmouth Sinfonia war ein britisches Sinfonieorchester (teilweise um einen Chor verstärkt), das hauptsächlich aus musikalischen Laien bestand und mit seinen amateurhaften Interpretationen sehr erfolgreich war. Es wurde zeitweilig als das schlechteste Orchester der Welt beworben. (de)
  • La Portsmouth Sinfonia fue una orquesta inglesa, fundada por un grupo de estudiantes de la Portsmouth School of Art en 1970. La Sinfonia estaba abierta a todo el mundo y acabó atrayendo a músicos sin formación musical o, si eran músicos, que elegían tocar un instrumento totalmente nuevo para ellos. Entre los miembros fundadores se encontraba uno de sus profesores, el compositor inglés Gavin Bryars. La orquesta comenzó como un conjunto artístico de carácter puntual, pero se convirtió en un fenómeno cultural durante los 10 años siguientes, con conciertos, discos, una película y un single de éxito. La última vez que actuaron en público fue en 1979.​ (es)

  • Le Portsmouth Sinfonia était un orchestre fondé en 1970 par des étudiants de la Portsmouth School of Art (Portsmouth, Angleterre) et un de leurs professeurs, le compositeur Gavin Bryars. Il avait la particularité de regrouper des non-musiciens et des musiciens jouant d'un instrument qui leur était entièrement nouveau. L'orchestre fut créé à l'origine pour une représentation unique à prendre au second degré, mais rencontra un succès inattendu, et enchaîna concerts et albums jusqu'à leur dernière représentation publique en 1979.

  • La Portsmouth Sinfonia era un'orchestra costituita da un gruppo di studenti della Portsmouth School of Art nel 1970. La strana caratteristica dell'ensemble era il requisito che i membri dovessero essere non musicisti o comunque, se già musicisti, non dovevano avere esperienza precedente sullo strumento che suonavano nell'orchestra. Tra i fondatori vi era il compositore inglese Gavin Bryars, insegnante della scuola. L'orchestra era nata come formazione singolare e senza particolari pretese, ma è divenuta un fenomeno culturale nei successivi dieci anni, tenendo concerti e registrando album. L'ultima esibizione in pubblico della Sinfonia risale al 1979. (it)
  • ポーツマス・シンフォニア (The Portsmouth Sinfonia) は、イングランド南部ポーツマスにある芸術学校 (the Portsmouth School of Art) の学生たちが1970年に創設したオーケストラ。普通のオーケストラの場合とは異なり、音楽家ではない素人であるか、音楽家である場合にはそれまでまったく演奏したことがない楽器を演奏することが、シンフォニアの入団条件とされていた。シンフォニアの創設者のひとりは、芸術学校の教師であった作曲家ギャヴィン・ブライアーズであった。このオーケストラは、はじめは1回限りの、洒落が効いたパフォーマンス・アート集団として始められたが、その後10年に及ぶ活動を通して文化的現象となり、何回もコンサートが開催され、レコードも数枚作成された上、映画も1本制作され、ヒット・シングルも1作出た。最後に公演が行われたのは、1979年であった。 (ja)
