OUR ORCHESTRA

The Venice Symphony was founded in 1974 with volunteer musicians that included an 86-year-old French horn player and an 8-year-old violinist. Today’s orchestra is comprised of more than 75 accomplished, professional musicians from all over the Country. Their impressive backgrounds and music careers have spanned the United States and the World and bring depth and diversity to The Venice Symphony.

The Venice Symphony’s musicians are also available to perform at events and celebrations. You can experience a concert featuring these classically-trained musicians in an intimate setting in curated programs, featuring works that span the full range of classical and popular music from Beethoven and Mozart to beloved standards and the Beatles. If you would like to engage a Venice Symphony Chamber Music group or soloist for your event, we will work with you to match you with the best musicians and program for your venue, event and budget. We promise a memorable and unique experience as well as a commitment to the health and safety of your guests and our musicians during this challenging time.
