Juno Orchestra

The Brattleboro Music Center’s newest program, Juno Orchestra, is the region’s hometown professional chamber orchestra. 

Formed in the spring of 2017 under the direction of Zon Eastes, Juno started as a time-limited project: The Juno Orchestra Project. During its tenure, the Project commissioned new pieces for chamber orchestra, presented locally born and raised musicians as featured soloists, collaborated with local nonprofits (in once instance, winning a national award for creative excellence in community programming), and brought together the region’s finest musicians to explore and perform new and older works for small orchestra. More about the original project can be found at junoorchestra.org.

After a brief period of time “in residence” at the BMC, Juno Orchestra officially became part of the  BMC in 2023.  The Orchestra presents as many as four public concerts each year, programmed to celebrate the Brattleboro area’s rich musical history as well as its current, amazing creative assets.
