Finding what’s resonating

The Reno Chamber Orchestra works to build community via ‘The Stories We Tell’ 

Orchestral music isn’t the most popular form of music in 2023. As a result, music organizations worldwide are doing what they can to help the genre grow and reach new ears. 

For the Reno Chamber Orchestra, collaboration is extremely important—and the orchestra is working with a variety of individuals and organizations for an upcoming concert event, The Stories We Tell. Narration, music, storytelling and more will unite when the Reno Chamber Orchestra takes a journey through three works, on Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 18 and 19.  

During a recent phone interview, Reno Chamber Orchestra executive director Amy Heald explained that the event was inspired by a desire to provide programming that is progressive and community-focused.
