If You Want to Play, Not Just Listen

The orchestra is a volunteer organization, inaugurated in 1983, open to musicians of varying ages and abilities in the Capital Regional District of Victoria, BC, Canada. For the 2026–2027 season it invites applications for Principal Violist, effective immediately. It also says it is always looking for capable string section musicians — these are non-auditioned positions, but strong music reading skills and at least three years of performance experience are recommended, and some large ensemble experience is an asset.

Two conditions matter before you commit:

• All members are volunteers, and playing requires membership in the organization (fees apply).
• The orchestra recommends reviewing its rehearsal schedule, attendance policy, and roles and responsibilities documents before joining.

To express interest, email [email protected] with some information about yourself before attending a rehearsal. The site welcomes adults of all ages and backgrounds.
