Letter from the officers

Welcome to our club webpage! The Penn State Viola Society (PSUVS) is an official Penn State student organization.  The club assists with studio events, such as providing receptions at guest recitals, scheduling outreach events, planning concert trips, and organizing social events for violists.  

In the last few semesters, we've organized several viola ensemble outreach events in the central Pennsylvania area. These include a concert for orchestra students at Altoona Junior High School and a children's "Pajama Concert" at Schlow Library in downtown State College (take a look at the photos in the slideshow above).

We frequently provide receptions for guest masterclasses and recitals (see Events and Gallery pages for details and photos) and have taken road-trips to see nearby viola performances - for example, we saw David Aaron Carpenter in New York last February.  Most notably, the PSUVS organized a week-long summer trip to the 2012 International Viola Congress at the Eastman School in Rochester, New York.  

We also typically have a holiday party and gift exchange at the end of the fall semester (see freshly baked cookies above!) and have  barbecues or enjoy the warm weather by hiking Mt. Nittany in the spring.  

If you'd like to contact a PSUVS officer, you can find our contact information on our official  Penn State student organization page (just search "Viola Society").  You can also visit the Contact Us page and fill out the form there if you have any questions!

Hope to hear from you soon,
PSUVS Officers
