Welcome to DYSO

The Dublin Youth String Orchestra (DYSO) is an audition-based youth orchestra program for Dublin students entering grades 5 - 9.  Once selected, members continue to participate in their school orchestra during the school day and meet weekly after school to collaborate with other outstanding orchestra students from across the district.

Looking Ahead!

We are looking forward to an exciting 2022-2023 season next school year!  We are thrilled to continue working with local composer, Erica Donahoe, as she composes a commissioned piece for our group.  Learn more about Mrs. Donahoe at this link.  Rehearsals begin in October!

Auditions for the 2023-2024 Season

Auditions for the next season take place each year in May.  Registration for auditions will open in February - in the meantime, check the Audition page for more information on the process.  *Returning members do not need to re-audition!

Rehearsal Assistants for 2023-2024

Students entering grades 10 - 12 may interview to become a rehearsal assistant.  Rehearsal Assistants have teaching, performance, and administrative responsibilities as designated by the DYSO directors.  Interviews for the next season take place each year in May.
