The joy of classical music has long been one of the hallmarks of a civilized society. I know of no other vehicle for letting one’s imagination take flight.

I first heard the Philharmonic in 1978, The William Tell Overture was the curtain raiser and I became a subscriber shortly after that. Over the years, the Philharmonic helped me discover new works and provided valuable insights for many favorites. One quality, superb musicianship was a constant through the years and under Maestro Lawrence Loh, the orchestra has never been better!quality, superb music

We are so fortunate to have a high quality orchestra serving our region, delighting audiences with classical and pops performances, collaborating with renowned guest artists, and educating school-age children about instruments and music. We are proud to support the Philharmonic through the PNC Pops Series again this year.
