Blowing our own trumpet!

Dunblane Chamber Orchestra was formed in 2008 and is made up of experienced players from Dunblane and the surrounding area.

The orchestra gives two concerts a year in May and November, performing familiar and lesser known works to an appreciative audience.

Building on the 2020/21 successful winter zoom rehearsals and followed by small ensembles during the summer of 2021, we look forward to more "Miniature" sessions for DCO players to getogether in 2022 outside of the two main concerts.

We held our first Community Play Day for adults in 2019 and then sadly the events scheduled for 2020 and 2021 had to be cancelled due to Covid.

The next Community Play Day is in October 2022.

Our programmes can be viewed on the Concerts page and there is a complete list of works played to date on the Repertoire page.

Players subscription - £20 per concert, free to students and first time players.
