LASO is celebrating its 62nd season with 2008-2009! LASO is an amateur community orchestra dedicated to providing performance opportunities for local musicians in Los Alamos, New Mexico. LASO is always interested in hearing from musicians new to the community and from former members who would like to start playing again. Suggestions for our future activities are also encouraged.
