How to Join the Orchestra

Join Us!

The Northwestern Medical Orchestra draws its members from all over the Northwestern medical community. As we hope to provide an inclusive and low-stress orchestral experience, we do not hold auditions. We add members twice per year in September and January, and joining is coordinated through our mailing lists. Email us at nmorchestra@u.northwestern.edu to be added and ensure you receive information about musical opportunities!

Please note that while we aim to include as many musicians possible, we are a Feinberg Student Organization and oversubscribed sections will go through a selection process where Feinberg students are given priority.

Our rehearsals are from 7-9pm on Tuesdays on Northwestern’s Chicago campus. Check out our About Us page for more information about rehearsals and concerts, and please email us at nmorchestra@u.northwestern.edu with any questions or comments.

If you are interested in jazz, chamber music, or other non-orchestral musical experiences, we do coordinate a small group experience. Email us if you’d like to join in!
