We shall be holding another series of rehearsals followed by a concert on 11 and 18 May and 1 June.

The rehearsals will be in the Minerva Hall of Dumfries Academy starting at 10:00am.  On 1 June the short, informal (and free) concert after the rehearsal will start around 12.30pm.  All are invited.

On 16 June we'll be participating in a concert by the Solway Sinfonia (http://solwaysinfonia.org.uk/) from which all profits will go to DGYO.  That will be in the wonderful new hall of Dalbeattie Learning Campus.   Thanks to the Solway Sinfonia! 

Then we’ll have more sessions in September and November - dates and venues to be announced.

Sunday 1 September 2019

For the third year the Solway Sinfonia will be running a young musicians day when young instrumental players of Grade 3 and above are invited to come to play with the adult orchestra under the direction of its new conductor Hilario Flores-Coni.  The event will take place on Sunday 1 September 2019.  Further details can be found on the Application Form which can be downloaded here.

We've been very fortunate to have been given an extremely generous donation by the John Younger Trust, a local family trust based in Gatehouse of Fleet.  Our grateful thanks to the trustees.  The money they have given us will enable us to start our own music library.

If you aren’t yet a member of DGYO but you’re interested to know what music we’re currently rehearsing you can find it on the BBC website here BBC 10 Pieces. You can listen to the music being played and you can download the music for your instrument and follow along or even give it a go.
