Carson City Symphony was founded in 1984 as the
Carson City Chamber Orchestra and gave its first concert in October that
year. It is a community orchestra
open to amateur and volunteer professional musicians.
Members come from all walks of life and have ranged from elementary school
students to senior citizens.
The Symphony performs five or more concerts each year for
audiences in Carson City.
It also
has performed in Minden, Gardnerville, Fallon, South Lake Tahoe, and Virginia
City. We play many works by contemporary composers and have commissioned and
premiered several pieces.

Not Quite Ready for Carnegie Hall Players
Perform at Sierra Place Senior Living
Thursday, June 22, 2017
The Not Quite Ready for Carnegie Hall Players perform at the Sierra Place Senior
Living, 1111 W. College Parkway, Carson City, on Thursday, June 22, 2017, at 10:30 a.m.
The event is free and open to the public.
The "Not Quite Ready for Carnegie Hall Players" is the creation of Carson City Symphony
Education Director and former Concertmaster Sue Jesch. Each week, a group of adult
musicians, some of them beginners, get together to play music at the Carson City Senior
Center. The group meets Thursdays at 10:00 a.m. The primary purpose of this is to give
adult musicians who may not be ready for a regular adult orchestra, such as the Carson
City Symphony, an opportunity to play and enjoy easy music.
