Symphony Saturdays

Schubert Symphony No. 3

a one-day open orchestra

Saturday, November 14th at Scribble

Symphony Saturdays is an ongoing series of one-day open orchestras, where musicians from varying backgrounds come together to learn and perform a symphony in a single afternoon. The only goal is to play with joy, without the fear of "perfection", and to be electrified by the music of Mozart, Schubert, Mendelssohn and more. As Beethoven said, "To play a wrong note is insignificant; to play without passion is inexcusable".

NECOLA (Northeast Chamber Orchestra Los Angeles) is a nonprofit increasing access to the art of chamber music and chamber orchestra for musicians and listeners of all stripes. With programs like Symphony Saturdays (one-day open orchestras), workshops and Schubertiades (salon concerts), NECOLA is creating spaces where anyone can participate in an art form that is too often exclusionary, and where joy and enthusiasm are the only requirements.
