Crafting connections through sound

The Vancouver Music Organization (VMO) is a collection of music ensembles aimed at bringing exciting and entertaining musical performances to our community and beyond. Our purpose is to provide musical performance opportunities for musicians of all ages and skill levels.

Founded originally in 2005 as the Vancouver Community Concert Band by Dr. Jim Rourk, we have since expanded our ensemble offerings to include jazz, marching, and more!

In 2025, the Vancouver Music Organization was established to represent our evolution and a new governance structure was adopted. As an organization, we perform at various civic and patriotic events, neighborhood festivals, and many other local and regional events.
