Welcome!

The Viola da Gamba Society of Greater New York (VdGS/GNY) is a nonprofit organization formed for the purpose of promoting activities related to, and disseminating information about, the viola da gamba and related early instruments. Our community of members includes amateur and professional players of the viola da gamba, instrument makers, musicologists, composers, and others with an interest in the instrument and its repertoire. 

We welcome anyone and everyone to join! The only requirement is a love of music. The VdGS/GNY has many resources to help get anyone interested playing in no time, from instrument rentals to teacher recommendations. Please check out our Membership section or email info@vdgsgny.org for help or more information!
