The GVO is a community orchestra playing six classical concerts during a season that runs from early autumn through May. Concerts usually take place on Sunday afternoons in Manhattan and are preceded by five to seven rehearsals on Tuesday evenings (usually 6:30 to 9:15pm), plus a dress rehearsal the Saturday morning before the concert. The planned schedule and venues for the year will be posted in advance to this site.

The Assistant Conductor will be expected to attend all rehearsals and concerts, cover the repertoire on all programs and conduct at least one work on the annual family program in December. The annual salary is $4,000.
