PYO Rehearsal and Concert Dates

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all PYO members for their hard work in making this session such a success, you have all contributed massively to the continued recovery of PYO after such challenging times.  Many audience members have commented on the noticeable improvement and growth of the orchestra from last year. 
 
Many thanks must go to all who attended the Easter Music Camp, for working so hard and for some great performances in the Concert Hall. Congratulations to all and, in particular, to our two soloists on excellent performances.   
 
We now have a busy remainder of the session with Perth Festival of the Arts commitments and our usual Autumn concerts in Edinburgh & Perth. 
 
The diary of rehearsals and concerts is as follows:

*Further correspondence re August rehearsals and concerts will be issued in early August. 
 
Please note all PYO members that were not at camp should try to get to as many rehearsals as possible to get used to new music.  All music will shortly be uploaded to the PYO Teams which will be particularly useful to players who were unable to attend camp. 
 
I am aware that there are many rehearsal commitments at a very busy time with exams etc.  Please try to attend as many as possible while still preparing for SQA exams. 
 
Many thanks again
