ABOUT THE ORCHESTRA

The Lake Havasu Regional Orchestra is an all-volunteer orchestra with a mission to add to the culture climate of the region and to support a scholarship program for young musicians. Many members have a professional background in music, but not all. Non-professional musicians come with a variety of backgrounds. Instrumental musicians who are able to read and learn music at an appropriate level are welcome. At this time, wind, brass, and string instruments are especially needed. Community members at large are invited to participate as Friends of the Orchestra providing support with concerts and in other endeavors.
