The Carson Valley Pops Orchestra is comprised of professional and semi-professional musicians, ranging in age from teens to senior citizens. They are a great group of people who volunteer their time and talent.

We are always interested in more musicians ~ especially violins, cellos and violas. If you would like to join the Orchestra, come to one of our rehearsals and speak with the Conductor. The next rehearsal is posted on the homepage.

The Orchestra wishes to acknowledge and thank those who have made generous donations which keep our concerts free! Please patronize their businesses and events whenever possible.
