A better way to express your passion for music.
The SCO motivates and inspires audiences of all ages throughout Scotland and beyond. We're passionate about what we do. If you share that passion, why not join the SCO Patrons? Without your support, we would be unable to deliver our busy schedule of performances, touring, recordings, Education and Outreach work.
You can support our work by choosing a patron level that suits you, whether you want to give £5 or £5,000.
Patron (up to £119 each year)
Bronze Patron (£120 - £299)
Silver Patron (£300 - £599)
Gold Patron (£600 - £999)
Platinum Patron (£1,000 - £4,999)

Our Patrons receive regular updates on the work of the Orchestra and enjoy opportunities to meet the music-makers themselves. Become a member of the family and help keep the SCO at the forefront of the world’s musical stage.
Named Player Chair
For those interested in making a more substantial donation to the orchestra we offer the opportunity to sponsor an SCO player. Whether you have a penchant for the French horn, there’s a budding viola player inside you or you particularly admire one of the Orchestra’s many characters, why not support the SCO by sponsoring a Named Player Chair.
