Join Us

The Community Women’s Orchestra welcomes all female-identifying musicians! We rehearse on Thursday evenings from 7:15 to 9:30pm in Oakland, and our season runs from late August through May.

We perform three main concerts each year—including a fall “Friends and Family”-themed bash and a March concert in honor of International Women’s Day—and many of our members also participate in our chamber music fundraiser each June.

Although we don’t hold formal auditions, we do recommend an intermediate level (or above) of playing.

Whatever your status, we’d love to get to know you. Please fill out the form below or contact us for more information!
