Casting Call: Dakota Valley Symphony Seeking Musicians
The orchestra and chorus is looking for new performers for its 2012 to 2013 season.
The Dakota Valley Symphony is beginning a new season, and the group has put out a call for local musicians and singers to fill out its ranks.
The Dakota Valley Symphony, or DVS, was created in 1986. The non-profit is sustained by volunteers: The DVS is comprised of a 60-member symphony orchestra, a 40-member mixed chorus and a 90-member Summer Pops orchestra and chorus—all of whom donate their time and talents to the group.

No auditions are required to join the chorus, which is open to anyone able to attend rehearsals. Singers can contact Jean Rostollan at jrostollan@comcast.net to receive further information.
