Since October 2012, the Las Vegas Philharmonic has been based at the Smith Center for the Performing Arts. Before then, it was based at Artemus W. Ham Concert Hall on the campus of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Nine guest conductors led the orchestra through the 2012-2013 season, each auditioning for the position of principal conductor.[4] Las Vegas Philharmonic is sometimes referred to as Las Vegas Philharmonic Orchestra.

Principal conductors
gollark: There's no *inherent* goodness/badness of acts. You can't just crash trolleys together in a particle collider and observe moralons coming out of it or something to determine what's good and bad.
gollark: Well, yes, current moral standards are "better" in a bunch of dimensions we like, but those are only "better" in the first place because current moral standards say so.
gollark: Yes.
gollark: Oh, so you mean "our moral standards now are better according to our moral standards now".
gollark: How are you defining "exists" here? People 500 years ago had moral standards. Probably same going back to even the invention of agriculture.
