Temecula Valley Symphony
Temecula Valley Symphony is the resident orchestra of Temecula and Southwest Riverside County. TVS is comprised of sixty dedicated and enthusiastic musicians from four counties, all of whom desire to participate in this growing regional symphony experience. The Symphony presents six ticketed concerts per season and performs at four additional outreach concerts. Each year the Symphony hosts a Young Artist Competition and selects outstanding concerto performers who receive cash awards and an opportunity to perform with TVS in concert. The Symphony also donates a large number of tickets to school music programs and under-served members of the community, special needs programs, homes for battered women and children, and senior centers, so as to provide them with an opportunity to attend a live symphonic concert.
Temecula Valley Youth Symphony
Temecula Valley Youth Symphony provides music students with weekly orchestral rehearsals, elevated music training, and performance opportunities. The Youth Symphony program is comprised of several different tiers that are based on the students' musical abilities. We offer four different ensembles:
1. Temecula Valley Youth Symphony - our top level orchestra
2. Junior Youth Symphony - our intermediate level orchestra
3. Prelude Strings, Level II - comprised of students who have moved past the beginner level but who are still not yet ready for the Junior Youth Symphony
4. Prelude Beginning Strings, Level I - an ensemble focused on providing instruction for beginning string players
Each of our performance groups are conducted and/or directed by a highly qualified conductor and music educator.
Temecula Valley Symphony Chorus
Temecula Valley Symphony Chorus exists to advance the mission of the Symphony by enhancing its programming with excellent, varied, and engaging symphonic choral works. In addition, the chorus seeks to bring to our community greater awareness and enjoyment of the choral arts by presenting high-quality, diverse, and vibrant chamber concerts. The chorus aspires to become one of the premier choral organizations in Southern California by attracting and developing gifted singers through a warm, challenging, and fun rehearsal environment and a variety of performance experiences.
