In spring of 2013, I founded a non-profit organization called Awesöme Orchestra Collective. We meet usually once a month to hold open orchestra rehearsals at different non-traditional rehearsal spaces throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. Our mission is to create fun orchestral adventures that are accessible to musicians and the public.

If you are passionate about orchestras and are seeking a relaxed environment that focuses on high musicianship, join us to meet other Bay Area musicians and make great music! All you have to do is bring yourself and a music stand; we’ll provide everything else. It will always be free to participate and is usually free to attend as an audience.

We play all kinds of repertoire for orchestra (new and old pieces, traditional and non-traditional, anything that’s exciting). You can see our calendar for upcoming events here, or  sign up for the listserv to stay up to date with all the ways you can be involved. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out!
