Geelong Community Orchestra:

Geelong Community Orchestra currently rehearses and performs under the skillful guidance of Allister Cox. I happen to be fortunate enough to be the Orchestra's Leader.
Over the past year and a half of my full involvement with the Orchestra, we have given a number of Concerts, but the Organisation's history goes back way further. As a matter of fact, in 2008 we are celebrating its' 25th Anniversary!
Yet another 3 Concerts are planned for this year as part of celebrations, with the last one involving a number of past conductors. If you would like some details on venues and tickets, here's the contact info:
