ABOUT THE WESTMORELAND SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA The Westmoreland Symphony Orchestra began in 1969 when a group of community leaders and musicians assembled an orchestra for several concerts at a local high school. Now, 47 years later, the WSO brings world-class soloists to the concert stage. Under the artistic direction of Daniel Meyer, the WSO presents four classical concerts and one holiday pops all at the Palace Theatre in downtown Greensburg. The WSO’s Academy of Music provides educational programs including the Young People’s Concert, Summer Philharmonic, Youth Orchestras, Young Artists Competition and private lessons.
