Joining in the fun

If you'd like to play with us next fall, the best thing to do is to register for the orchestra's class with De Anza college. The class code is usually MUSI031 and you don't have to take any academic placement tests.

Director Loren is also organizing a group to make music during summer 2014.

You can support the orchestra in its recruiting efforts by putting up one of these recruiting posters wherever you work or play.
