Becoming an Associate of the RCO (ARCO)

The photo on the right shows the end of our July 13th concert in Aysgarth Church: a fabulous venue and a large enthusiastic audience. We can present concerts like this partly because of the generosity of our supporters. 

We are immensely grateful to Richmond Town Council and the Abstract Group of Companies who supported us when we started. Now we enjoy the support our ARCOs, who as you will see below, contribute to our activities. 

We need more of them! Currently we have 5. 10 would help finance a fund for an educational project, or pay the concert fee for a young performer. Find out below how you could contribute. If you think that our aims are worthy of support, being one of our Associates will be a rewarding experience. You will know that you are helping us to encourage young players, to bring music to people who may not often hear live classical music, and to champion living composers as often as we can. 

P.S. String players will know that arco means playing with the bow as opposed to pizzicato!
