join the orchestra

The Westlake Village Symphony is always looking for new musicians to join our ranks! Membership is open to all adult players of a wide range of abilities from profession to amateur who embrace opportunities to grow musically and perform masterpiece repertoire.

WVS rehearses on Wednesdays from 7:00-9:30 pm at Emmanuel Presbyterian Church in Thousand Oaks, California. The orchestra performs four to five regular concerts each season.

Opportunities to play in winds, brass, and percussion sections are limited by audition only and have waiting lists, but string players are always welcome! To find out more about how you can join our wonderful orchestra, complete the form below or send an email to wvs@westlakevillagesymphony.com to request additional information.

Lastly, there’s lots to get done outside of practicing. Any volunteer action, whether that’s promotional, ticket, support, ushering, printing, transcriptions etc, there’s always opportunities for volunteers.
