Orchestra sound systems hire

Concert Trade was founded on supplying high quality sound systems for live music. Our skills in selecting the right equipment, and particularly in microphone placement, are never more important than in working with orchestras.

We pride ourselves on our knowledge of how to produce the best sound from every instrument, and we have a large hire stock from which to select the best equipment for every circumstance.

If you have an orchestral event coming up then please call us to discuss your requirements on +44(0)161 928 1004, or email the Hire Department. Although Manchester based we can provide equipment throughout the UK and Europe.

We are experienced in both indoor and outdoor orchestral concerts, having taken part in countless events in theatres, concert halls, parks and other open air events, and even touring stately homes. We have worked with many City Councils to provide equipment for public concerts, and we can provide not only the sound system, but also lighting, staging and power generators when needed.

PA systems are available for dry hire, or supplied with an experienced sound engineer. A hire package will include all necessary microphones, stands, cables, etc.
