Artistry in Sound.

From its humble beginnings as a “what if” discussion between three people at a kitchen table in 1996 to a full-fledged, American Prize-winning community orchestra, the Waynesboro Symphony Orchestra has thrived as a gem of creativity and growth.

Nestled in the shadows of Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains, the WSO attracts talented students, music professors and professionals to its ranks — performing richly varied and entertaining programs of classical masterworks, modern compositions and American pops music.

“A symphony orchestra has the power to move people and create life-changing experiences — ones that in turn can deeply affect a community. I have witnessed firsthand the Waynesboro Symphony Orchestra having this kind of profound impact on audiences.”
