Los Angeles Virtuosi Orchestra

Based in Los Angeles, the Los Angeles Virtuosi Orchestra (LAV) is an orchestra of professional musicians dedicated to the advocacy and support of music education, envisioning a world in which every young person has access to music education. 

LAV's mission is to serve as a catalyst for music education through collaborative partnerships with the community, schools, agencies, and other arts organizations. It allocates 100% of its net income from performances to support and develop music education.

Founded in 2013 as a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization and debuting at Festival Napa Valley in 2014, the ensemble was formed on the core belief that the orchestra is a unique educational resource and that the study of music develops cooperation, self-esteem, creativity, commitment, discipline, and perseverance.
