DV in Solothurn
The 105th Assembly of Delegates (AGM) of the EOV will take place on Saturday, April 26, 2025 in Solothurn. We have been able to win the Solothurn City Orchestra as host and co-organizer. We would like to thank them in advance for their commitment.
The Solothurn Regional Youth Orchestra (RJSO) will open the day with a concert. After the statutory part of the DM, you can learn interesting facts about fundraising in a workshop or experience a guided tour of the baroque city. At the concluding drinks reception, you will have the opportunity to network with the other delegates in an uncomplicated manner and deepen existing contacts.
Network meeting for members of the Executive Board
Keeping an orchestra association running involves a lot of work and brings with it various challenges that you don't encounter in your other life. With every organized project, board members gain valuable experience. With the network meetings, we want to offer a platform to share best practices and discuss difficulties.
Due to the many positive responses to the previous meetings, we will be continuing the network meetings for amateur orchestras next year on the following dates:
- January 18, 2025 in Zurich
- September 20, 2025, location still open
The network meetings specifically for youth orchestras and young board members take place on the following dates:
- February 22, 2025 in Basel
- November 15, 2025
All meetings take place in the afternoon. Detailed information and the registration form will be published on the EOV website a few weeks before the respective date. Stay tuned!
EOV courses and partner courses
The EOV will also be supporting various partner projects again in 2025. Members of EOV orchestras will receive an exclusive discount of 10% on the course price for these projects. We will present the orchestra and chamber music courses of the EOV partners at the beginning of the new year.
The courses offered directly by the EOV, "String instrument care" with master violin maker Daniel Schranz and "Healthy through the orchestra project" with ZHdK lecturer Judith Buchmann, are free of charge for member orchestras. Interested orchestral associations can submit a request on the EOV website at any time to arrange a bilateral appointment for the course to be held at the orchestra's premises.
The EOV Board is already looking forward to many exciting talks, encounters and discussions in 2025. Until then, we wish you successful concerts, a wonderful end to the year and a happy new year.
