Get to Know your S.O.!
Every week, get to know one of your Summerville Orchestra's very own musicians. Hear their stories, how they got here, how they got involved in the orchestra, and most importantly, hear them play the very pieces that inspire(d) them on their own instruments. What better way to connect with your favorite orchestra than to get to know the very players at the heart and center of the music.

Ep. 13 - Harry & Ellen Dykeman, Trumpet & Bassoon, Musicians' Board Members
Episode 13 - Harry & Ellen Dykeman, Trumpet & Bassoon, Musicians' Board Members
Married 47 years this past August, Harry & Ellen make up a vital part of our orchestra. Not only do they bless us with their talents, but also their passion, energy and drive. They are current members of our Musicians' Board, and are actively engaged in promoting and growing our orchestra. Join us today to hear all about how they met, Harry's time playing in the Army Band in D.C., Ellen's career in higher ed, how they ended up in Summerville, and more! Many life lessons to be learned in this one folks, and believe me these two are the definition of #relationshipgoals. Come take a listen!
At the end, Harry & Ellen play two duets for us. Mind you, its not often that you get to hear a trumpet/bassoon duet, so no matter what, you're in for a treat! Up first is Scott Joplin's "Maple Leaf Rag", followed by a little holiday spirit to get you excited for December!
