Additional Information

If you haven't yet paid your annual dues, please do; they are $35 for adults, $15 for students, and help fund our new music and costs to hold concerts.

Keep the orchestra in mind as you make your way around Connecticut, particularly if you are involved in musical activities.  We are particularly in need of string players, French Horn players, percussionists, and a bassoonist. All others are, of course, always welcome.
