Open to amateur adult musicians of all levels, the WCM Community Orchestra provides participants the opportunity to learn and perform both traditional and lesser-known orchestral literature with like-minded avid adult musicians in a friendly professional atmosphere. The orchestra performs three public concerts each year.
Capital Horns of Washington Conservatory of Music was founded by Amy Horn in June 2017 to create a central forum for horn players in the area to rehearse, play, and perform. Capital Horns, under the direction of Jeff Bianchi, meet at Glen Echo Park on the second and fourth Sunday of each month, from 7 to 8:30 pm, to rehearse transcriptions, arrangements, and original works for horn ensemble. Capital Horns has performed at Georgetown University, Glen Echo Park, Vienna Presbyterian Church, and First Congregational UCC. The group is featured at George Mason University’s annual Horn Day. Capital Horns welcomes players of all ages and skill levels who want to make music with this wonderful instrument in a friendly and supportive environment.
