2026-27 Season Overview

The DC Concert Orchestra Society is pleased to announce our 2026-27 orchestra season entitled Universal Resonance, a journey featuring surprising musical encounters and conversations across generations and cultures, across oceans, mountains, and plains. From the innovative reimagining of traditional songs and dances to the joy, serenity, and mystery of Beethoven and Brahms, join us in celebrating the search for connection and identity at the heart of the human experience.

Our chamber music season features five concerts in Alexandria, Dupont Circle, Silver Spring and Bethesda, with a mixture of traditional favorites and lesser heard works.
