The Dunedin Music Society connects local communities with live music through multiple ensembles and programs, including:

• Large festivals and local concerts with the award-winning Dunedin Concert Band, Pinellas Community Players, and the Rhythm Kings Jazz Orchestra
• Educational opportunities for amateur and professional performers with the WIBRAP (WInd, BRAss & Percussion) Sight-Reading Workshops, Summer Sinfonia, and Music Theory Certifications
• A multitude of workshops and spectacular events such as an annual Holiday Pageant, the Pinellas Festival of Community Bands, and (soon) a triennial conference

DMS members both near and far get priority access to live music events, as well as opportunities to advocate for making the world a better place through live music.

The DMS takes pride in its inclusivity and diversity, which has contributed to our ability to host 105 verified, in-person and online events in 2020, directly impacting more than 7,500 individuals in communities around Florida, the USA and the world. We celebrate our openness with anyone and everyone who wants to participate in group live music-making in a supportive, encouraging and collaborative environment as part of our ongoing everyday operations. 

Organizational oversight of our Artistic and Executive Directors is provided by a governing Board of five Directors, while eleven members of the Executive Committee actually help get the work done to ensure that performers, audiences, members, our finances lead, logistics coordinator, library team, program managers and community relations teams have what they need to connect local communities with great quality live music. Active leaders, members, performers, volunteers and audiences from multiple races, ethnicities, religions, genders, abilities, ages, and other identities are the people who make the DMS one of the most rapidly expanding community-run organizations in our corner of the world.
