The Metropolitan Orchestra of New Jersey, now in its 50th season (see Our History), is a full symphonic community orchestra composed mostly of local volunteer musicians. The Orchestra performs three concerts per year (fall, winter and spring) featuring talented guest artists and some of the most popular and beautiful orchestral selections from major composers.

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the disbandment of the Metropolitan Orchestra of New Jersey. The full symphonic community orchestra, composed mostly of local volunteer musicians, performed for 50 seasons, featuring talented guest artists and some of the most popular and beautiful orchestral selections from major composers.
Check out the YouTube! page of our conductor Fawn Wiener-Giovannetti for some recordings from our recent concert!
We would like to thank our audience and musicians for their support over the years. The orchestra has had a great run of 50 years of providing fine music to the north Jersey area plus providing an opportunity for local musicians, both amateur and professional to present their talents to the public free of charge. You'll see familiar faces from the MONJ at the many other local NJ community orchestras. So, this is not "good-bye" but au revoir. |
