Fresno State Symphony Orchestra
Dr. Thomas Loewenheim, Director
Fresno State Symphony Orchestra
The Fresno State Symphony Orchestra presents four concerts to the public each season. The orchestra features standard as well as some neglected repertoire for symphony orchestra ranging from the Baroque period to the twenty-first century.
In addition to presenting works for symphony orchestra, the orchestra also performs works in collaboration with the Fresno State Choirs, features faculty, guests, and winners from the Annual Concerto Competition as soloists, and premiers compositions written by students and faculty.
The Fresno State Symphony Orchestra is open to instrumentalists who are enrolled as music majors, music minors, by special audition, or through the “60+” and “Step to College” programs. Enrollment in this orchestra requires the conductor’s permission and is based on the required audition. Auditions will take place during the first week of each semester. Students must be able to perform at the college level.
