The Cradle Coast Orchestra (CSO), was established in 1990 as the City of Burnie Orchestra under the direction of Ian Gale.  The idea was instigated by Burnie Arts Council President Lynne Price.

Since that time, numerous conductors have taken the helm, each adding to the orchestra’s repertoire and extending the skills and experience of the participating musicians.

Whilst operating for a time under the banner of Greater Braddon Orchestra, in 2008 the name was changed to Cradle Coast Orchestra to better reflect the region from which the members originate.

CSO involves approximately 30 members and shares a rehearsal space with the Burnie Concert Band at Cooee.  Contact: Josie Riches email: josephine.riches@gmail.com
