If you live in or around South London, then you’ve come to the right place for holiday music courses. Students come from North and South of the river, from Kent and Sussex and beyond. DYO, established for 40 years, meets for five mornings (9.20 – 1.00) each school holiday and presents a concert on the last day. A limited number of bursaries are available – please contact the administrator for more information. There are no auditions – see the recommended playing standards.
Dulwich Youth Orchestra are most fortunate to benefit from more than twenty highly professional and experienced tutors and to use the extensive facilities at Dulwich Prep London, including the Music School and the wonderful Concert Hall. Please apply as early as possible as courses fill up very quickly and they do not like to turn down children.
