Repertoire
The Orchestra performs a broad range of music that represents the history and future of the mandolin. Our repertoire includes familiar and fun classical music, folk and Americana music from the heydays of the American mandolin orchestra in the early 20th century, and contemporary original music written by our musical director and orchestra members.
Our musical repertoire is constantly expanding, but our recent concerts have featured songs from the Orchestra's last album, From Faraway Shores, as well as new arrangements and compositions from around the world. Guest artists and soloists further expand our musical depth with orchestral accompaniment. For the holidays, we are pleased to include new and traditional music celebrating the holidays and New Year.
