If you are in the Boston area, You are cordially invited to our next
concert.  The Mozart Society Orchestra was founded in 1984 under the
leadership of Charles Peltz (1984-1990).  The MSO continued to grow with
subsequent music directors Eric Benjamin (1990-1991) and David Commanday
'76 (1991-1997), Robert Lehmann (1997-2001), and Iris Lan '99 (2001-2002).

MSO hosts the annual Freshman Concerto Competition, which began when
David Commanday created the competition in 1991 to recognize and highlight
the talent of promising young Harvard musicians.  It is the only musical
competition at Harvard exclusively for first-years.

MSO is now entering its twentieth season.  Consisting of students from
all classes, the orchestra strives to create a cooperative ensemble and
to make playing opportunities available to as many interested musicians
as possible.  Rehearsals are Monday and Wednesday evenings, from 7-9:30.
If you are interested in playing with the MSO, please contact Joshua
Evans (jevans@fas).
