Ready to Ignite Your Imagination?
Our 2026-27 Season is built around music that sparks the imagination and fuels the spirit. Iconic works that have shaped generations, alongside unforgettable live experiences that bring our community together. From the bold brilliance of Beethoven and the sweeping emotion of Rachmaninoff, to the cinematic magic of John Williams (plus celebrating 50 years of George Lucas’ Star Wars: A New Hope) and the timeless beauty of Swan Lake in collaboration with Central West Ballet, every concert has been chosen to spark your soul.

Making Music Together.
Your support helps us not only bring high-quality orchestral music to the community, but it helps us to enrich lives through our music education and outreach programs. These programs would not survive on our ticket revenue alone. To keep our artistic, education, and outreach programs alive, we rely on the generosity of our community that invests in a harmonious future.
