Santa Fe Community Orchestra

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Santa Fe Community Orchestra (SFCO) is an amateur orchestra based in Santa Fe, New Mexico. In addition to performing concerts, the orchestra conducts educational programs, including children’s concerts, instrument-making workshops, and workshops for adult musicians. Some orchestra members have formed chamber ensembles. These groups have played at nursing homes, public schools, art gallery openings and benefit events. The SFCO supplies musicians for local choral and theatre productions and gives free performances in the St. Francis Auditorium.

The SFCO was established in 1982 and has since performed over 70 free concerts. Its president is Lisa Van Sickle, backed by music director Oliver Prezant and concert master Britt Ravnan.
