The Las Vegas Philharmonic

The Las Vegas Philharmonic (LVP) established its presence in Southern Nevada in 1998 and has a roster of 74 dedicated professional musicians.  The LVP believes music is essential to a strong community and remains committed to providing a wide array of programming that enhance the lives of our residents and culture of our city.

The inaugural Arts & Impact Residency in 2020-2021 utilizes performance and partnership to create change through collaboration with world-class cellist and TED Fellow, Joshua Roman.

Community engagement and education remain a priority and focus.  Its rich history of free music education programs continue with its annual Youth Concert Series, affording thousands of children access to music education in a specially curated concert.  The annual Concerto Competition recognizes and encourages emerging talent among Nevada youth in the context of music performance.  Music Van, the Phil's mobile music education and enrichment program, serves the broader community outside of the concert hall with engaging and in-depth content.
