Why should your join the Louisville Mandolin Orchestra? Here are a few reasons to consider:

HAVE A GOOD TIME MAKING MUSIC

The LMO is comprised of friendly people who like to enjoy and make music together. In addition to our fun-filled rehearsals and concerts, we have occasional social gatherings during the season.

RECEIVE MUSIC EDUCATION

The LMO is composed of players of all levels of musical backgrounds, from the beginner who is still learning to read music, to people who teach music at the university level. There’s always something to learn from others and you’ll quickly find that you have something to share.

ENJOY LOW-STRESS PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITIES

The LMO can get you on stage without the anxiety that you might experience in a small ensemble or solo setting. As the saying goes, there’s “safety in numbers” and by playing in sections with other musicians there’s less heat of the moment to keep you relaxed.

FIND YOUR PERFECT INSTRUMENT

The LMO can be a great resource to help you find your dream mandolin. With dozens of players picking many brands, shapes and all ages of instruments you’re presented with a tremendous opportunity to test-drive many models all in one place.

EXPRESS YOURSELF ARTISTICALLY

The LMO can help keep you fit! Research has shown that artistic expression is good exercise for your brain and well being. What better way is there to get a full-cranium work out?
