In tune with your orchestra

One concert. Many moving parts.

The programme determines the instruments. Bookings connect players with dates. A trip, accommodation and the project budget can follow from the same programme. In OPlanner you have everything in one place.

Tasks in the production team have an owner and a deadline. Musicians receive important information by e-mail and on their phones.

Website and calendars

Selected concerts appear on the orchestra's website through an API, and musicians subscribe to their dates in their own calendar.

Musicians confirm their availability, the production team and section leaders fill the positions, and the system flags scheduling conflicts.

A register of players, soloists, conductors and choirs with their instruments and contact details, linked to your projects.

    We discuss how you currently plan projects, book players and settle fees, and what you expect from the system.

  2. In-person presentation

    We will visit you and present OPlanner to your management and production team. If you would prefer an online meeting, we are happy to accommodate that.

    We train your team in person and help you with your first steps in the system.

About us

Software developed with first-hand knowledge of orchestral practice

OPlanner is developed and operated by OPlanner Software s.r.o., based in Prague. The company is your contractual partner for the licence, implementation and further development of the system.

Tim Kadlec, the company's founder and managing director, is an active orchestral flautist, a lecturer at the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague (HAMU) and a software developer. OPlanner is therefore built on the everyday running of an orchestra: rehearsals, bookings, tours and the administration that goes with them.
