New programs

THE DVO HAS RENEWED A FOCUS ON BEING ABLE TO OFFER 'SMALL GROUP' PERFORMANCES. THESE GROUPS ARE COMPRISED OF MEMBERS OF THE ORCHESTRA WHO ARE LOOKING FOR ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES TO SHARE THEIR MUSIC WITHIN COMMUNITY SPACES. SMALL GROUPS PRACTICE ADDITIONAL REPERTOIRE AND HAVE FLEXIBLE CONFIGURATIONS BASED ON MEMBER AVAILABILITY FROM PERFORMANCE TO PERFORMANCE.
