Dougie Scarfe OBE DL

Chief Executive, Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra

Dorset Ambassador

Dougie Scarfe joined the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra as Chief Executive in July 2012 after a successful career as performer, Manager and Director at Opera North.

Dougie studied the Principal Horn at the Royal Northern College of Music but in 2000, a serious playing-related jaw condition ended Dougie's performing career. After four years as Executive Assistant to the General Director at Opera North, in 2006 he became Chorus & Orchestra Director and Concerts Director and was widely credited with transforming the concert and recording programme at the Company.

At Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra Dougie has led a period of high artistic achievement and greater financial resilience combined with extraordinary reach and engagement with audiences and communities across 10,000sq miles of the South and South West.
