GYSMOKeys was set up in 2016 by local music teacher Ruth Harrison and is assisted by her husband Carl.

GYSMOKeys made their debut performance at the Festival of Carols in 2016. They have also held joint concerts with GYSMO at St. Andrew’s Church in Gorleston and taken part in the GYSMA Festival of Carols for several years (until lack of space made this sadly unworkable).

GYSMOKeys usually rehearse on the 2nd Saturday of the month from 2.15 to 4.45 during term time at St Andrew’s Church Chapter House, Gorleston.

GYSMOKeys held a successful Summer Concert on July 12th 2025, which will be followed by a Christmas Concert on Saturday 13th December 2025 5pm at St Andrew’s Church Chapter House, Gorleston.

The orchestra is for musicians of all abilities who play piano or keyboard and would like to play as part of an ensemble. Members are aged between 7-18 and attend a variety of primary and high schools, academies and colleges. The orchestra has grown over the years and reached a size of 33 players.
They play a variety of music including classical, popular, film and Disney.
