The Sun Cities Community Orchestra has dual missions:
1. To provide a nurturing environment for the ongoing music growth and social engagement of West Valley amateur musicians
2. To provide free concerts of classical and pops orchestral repertoire.
Established 35+ years ago, the orchestra is made up of musicians from the Sun Cities and surrounding communities.
The Sun Cities Community Orchestra (previously Chamber Orchestra) is a group of dedicated musicians who enjoy playing a wide variety of musical selections. The music ranges from classical to contemporary and jazz. The orchestra performs four to six concerts each year and always has full and appreciative audiences.
The orchestra performs under the direction of George Zoske – a life-long musician, teacher and conductor. In addition to the chamber orchestra, Zoske currently conducts the Sun City Concert Band and the Christo Handbell Choir at the American Lutheran Church of Sun City.
Membership in the orchestra is open to all RCSC Cardholders.
