The Frederick Symphony Orchestra continues to appreciate the Frederick area’s continued support as we all anxiously await the safe return of gatherings of large numbers of people in concert halls and other performance venues.

In the meantime, we are pleased to be able to make our periodic “live-stream” broadcasts available.  These are made up of segments from our past performances, augmented by live discussion with our conductors, principal artists, and guest performers.  Please make sure you “follow” the Frederick Symphony Orchestra’s YouTube channel so you don’t miss any of these exciting shows.

We are in the process of beginning a new small orchestra/ensemble series of “mini-concerts” which will help us fulfill our mission of providing outstanding orchestral music to the Frederick area community.  We’re excited about this new venture, and we hope these concerts will be well received by our friends and patrons.  Stay tuned!

And thank you for your on-going support of the Frederick Symphony Orchestra.
