Become a Founding Member

As we launch Utah’s first professional, conductorless chamber orchestra, we invite you to take part in a unique opportunity to become a founder of what we are confident will be an integral part of the state’s musical offerings. Chamber orchestras have become increasingly important to the classical music scene, with new ensembles emerging globally as the repertoire continues to grow. Conductorless ensembles also model a democratic process that emphasizes listening, empathy, and growth, all aspects we hope to inspire within the greater Utah community over the next many decades. We believe this type of ensemble will continually shape the artistic voice of the 21st century. Join us in creating a crucial building block within Utah’s cultural landscape.
