Participate?

History

On Sunday 3 March 2002 the first Dutch Play~In (at that time: Regionale Play-In West~Friesland) was organised in Schagen.
After 3 years
a number of participants have put forward the idea to rehearse and perform more often with the same music and the same orchestra composition. In 2006 we could make a serious attempt in starting to organise some things, such as a rehearsal location, conductors, music, rehearsals and concerts and on 18 June 2006 the first meet and greet rehearsal was organised. In September the Dutch Play~In Orchestra officially started with 80 musicians.
