The Monterey Symphony's mission is to entertain and engage our community through musical performance and education.
Each concert set during the Symphony's 80th Anniversary season is a testament to joy, creativity, and our connection to the community. The entire season will be bookended by concerts welcoming over 8,000 Monterey County students. Highlights include: Love Letter to Paris at the Forest Theater, a co-commission with Seattle and Utah Symphonies, Frank Zappa with full orchestra, singers, Women's Night Out, youth arts night, Symphony Saturdays at MyMuseum, master classes at local schools, focusing on music and mental health, social prescribing, musicians in the community, themed parties, pop-up lobby sessions, and much, much more!
The benefit to Monterey County is based on this past season, where every concert was sold out! The Monterey Symphony is a welcoming community gathering space where people enjoy the shared experience of live music. Music brings people together and we are the vehicle for that connection.
What a smashing close to the season. We have been season ticket holders for several years now, and are constantly thrilled and impressed by how lucky we are, living in a community this size, year after year to be able to enjoy the outstanding quality of the Monterey Symphony Orchestra!
