MAKING GREAT MUSIC ACCESSIBLE TO ALL

WHAT AUDIENCE MEMBERS ARE SAYING:
​

"I can’t express how much I’ve enjoyed each of the Orchestra Concordia performances I have attended since moving to the Main Line three years ago. It is a treasure to have this wonderful artistic service that you all work so hard to provide to the community. To have a classical music “concert hall” experience here in the suburbs, and what’s more provided free, is a genuine gift." ~ Ken C.

“It’s remarkable that a community orchestra sounds professional and offers such invaluable musical experiences to the public. Orchestra Concordia's performance was polished, and the winds accommodated the string sections so that the performance was well-balanced. The programming was superb. The Mendelssohn is a standard among symphonies, and it was performed with great clarity. You could easily hear all of the counter melodies and the contrapuntal mastery. Orchestra Concordia is a terrific asset to the community.”  ~ Vernal R.

"Thank you for the beauty you all express."

“What a treat to have such high quality orchestra in our back yard for free. If you want to hear orchestral music without the expense and journey of going to the city this music series can’t be beat.”  ~ Jill Wolf, Villanova, PA

"As an entrepreneur, taking an evening off is a luxury. Orchestra Concordia is just the ticket and restores my sanity with a night of professional level, emotionally performed music. I can easily drift, eyes closed; yet when I open my eyes, I am reminded visually that these musicians are far from amateurs. Indeed, they understand the beauty of the performance on all levels. The unexpected bonus? The voice of the conductor whose remarks about the music are both educational and witty. These concerts are one of the best cultural values in our area providing a tremendous experience and a lovely evening out for all."  
​~ Kat Rowan, CEO & Creative Director of TiffinTalk Inc.

Attending the orchestra's performances has been both pleasurable and educational, inspiring me to help promote and support these free concerts, which make music accessible for all who live and work in the area.”

The variety of music and the guest performers captures the audience, and I urge both the discerning classical concert veteran and the novice to attend their concerts for a delightful musical experience.”   ~ Mary G.

"I don’t often go to orchestral events, but I’ve been to a pair of Orchestra Concordia performances and have been very impressed by the quality of the musicianship as well as the unexpected variety of music performed. From an engaging conductor to impressive soloists to a highly trained orchestra, I have enjoyed every minute." ~ M. F.

"I am so grateful to Orchestra Concordia for their incredible gift of gorgeous orchestral music, given freely to the community. No other orchestra or ensemble I know of  provides such beautifully complex pieces, played by professionals who are there, not for a paycheck, but because they love what they do. Because there is joy, and genuine love of music, the experience Orchestra Concordia provides is unparalleled."  ~  Alicia Buckley, Collegeville
