VIENNA LIGHT ORCHESTRA - ABOUT US

Every concert is a delightful experience, and I believe there is no greater enjoyment than the freedom of expression for a musician and audience.  

“The Vienna Light Orchestra was created as a way to illuminate the world of orchestral music in a new light. You know how some people are so intimidated by orchestral music that they stay away? With us, things are different. The Vienna Light Orchestra has youthful, excited musicians who perform from their hearts — and touch hearts every evening. You’ll see us having fun with the audience, clapping, laughing and swaying with songs that are filled with so much joy.” — The Director


From the founder of Vienna Light Orchestra…

“When I was a teenager I wrote a song called Eternal Love. I was spellbound by the sweeping melodies that came flooding through the piano, which has become the rhythm of my life. Today, I’m thrilled to bring a lot of the worlds most beloved music to audiences everywhere. My dream is to help make the entirety of orchestral music enjoyable, fresh and delightful for everyone!”
