Who is the Waukesha Symphony Orchestra?

The members of the Waukesha Symphony Orchestra all earn at least a portion of their living as professional musicians. They rehearse and perform with the Orchestra at Shattuck Auditorium on the historic Carroll University campus during the regular season (September to May), and perform at Shattuck Auditorium, St. John's Northwestern Military Academy and the Country Springs Hotel and Conference Center. In addition, many musicians perform for Waukesha County elementary school students through our Major Classics for Minors programs and teach, coach and adjudicate for the Waukesha Symphony League’s Shining Stars Scholarship awards, Chapman Piano Competition and Masterworks Chamber Music Program. All members of the WSO auditioned for their position and the majority of the players are full-time freelance musicians throughout Southeastern Wisconsin. In addition to their commitment to the WSO, you may see WSO musicians performing with the Milwaukee Ballet Orchestra, Festival City Symphony, Skylight Opera Theatre, Racine Symphony Orchestra and the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra.
