Your Orchestra Trip Experience

Appropriate Orchestral Venues

Based on your orchestra's size, experience, ability and repertoire, we'll hand-pick appropriate venues just for you. We guarantee that the acoustics, stage size and venue type will be suitable for your orchestra.

Instrument & Equipment Rentals

We take care of all your instrument and equipment rental needs. Whether you need large percussion, an upright bass or a grand piano, we'll make sure it's ready for you on the stage.

Temperature-Controlled Instrument Trucks

We handle your instruments with care. Upon request, we'll book a temperature-controlled instrument truck to travel alongside your group. Your instruments are in good hands.

Instrument Insurance

Traveling with instruments can still be nerve-wracking! That's why both our Comprehensive & Ultimate Insurance Plans offer instrument insurance for passengers with the option to upgrade for additional coverage.

 

Instrument Storage

With Encore, your instruments will be safely stored in a separate room at the hotel, plus, we'll work with the venues and coach driver to ensure a safe storage space for your things during your performances.

Set-Up, Sound Checks and Rehearsals

We'll schedule plenty of time for your sound checks and rehearsals prior to each performance and we'll work with you in advance to determine how much time you will need.

Publicity Materials

Your orchestra's press kit is of the utmost importance when requesting to play in venues overseas. Our Ultimate Guide to Creating Your Orchestra's Press Kit will show you how to put these materials together.

Repertoire Approval

Whether performing for a formal performance, joint or benefit concert, repertoire selection is key to a successful orchestra trip. We'll help you select your orchestra's touring repertoire and send to your designated venues for approval.

 

Attire & Changing Rooms

We'll keep you informed of what concert attire you'll need to bring and we'll even book your changing rooms in advance!

Balance & Ringers

We know that your orchestra's balance is important during your recruitment strategies. We'll help you keep an eye on your balance through our passenger reports and can even hire ringers if you need them!

Joint Concerts, Workshops and Benefit Concerts

Looking to work with a local orchestra, participate in a workshop with a member of the local Philharmonic or want to raise money for a charity during your performance? Ask us to include some of these options in your proposal.
