Our next international tour will be to Japan in July 2019 – this promises to be one of the most exciting tours, both culturally and musically, that the Orchestra has ever undertaken!

Another annual fundraising event for the orchestra is bag packing. This year we had groups at both Morrisons and Tesco in Ayr on two separate days over the festive period.

Last night was another extremely successful AFO Christmas concert The night featured many of our favourite tunes. As it was our annual Christmas concert we did also play our favourite Christmas arrangements of Jingle Bells and our Christmas Medley arranged by our musical director David Moore. We also had performances from some of the orchestra’s resident Scottish dancers, and as always we had our Piper begin and end both halves of our concert, this was a debut for our new piper. The evening also included a raffle, ice cream, drinks and of course of merchandise table which featured our new 2018 calendar. At the Christmas concert in Ayr Town Hall we presented the money raised from the Spirit of Hope concert to the renal cancer research charity for £3250. Thanks to everyone who helped make this possible. The orchestra also played the song Spirit of Hope composed by Alistair McCulloch. Thanks to all that came along, I hope you enjoyed a fantastic night of music....
