About Us
The Cowichan Consort Orchestra and Choir is a classical community musical ensemble of around 50 orchestral players and 50 singers from around the Cowichan Valley. These semi-pro, retired, amateur, and student musicians have been entertaining local audiences for the past 32 years without government support. We have three to five evening performances per season, with audiences numbering between 300-700 per performance.
Not only do we regularly include youth choirs and young singers as guests in our programs, but we often have performed for local schools during the spring. In March, we feature the youth of the Cowichan Valley with a concerto competition for solo instrument and/or voice winner(s). We hope you will read our history and note our upcoming events on this website.
