About the Bangor Smphony Orchestra
The Bangor Symphony Orchestra has been providing live music for the people of Bangor since 1896 and hasn't missed a season since. From Beethoven to Tchaikovsky, old and new, the Bangor Symphony has something for everyone this season. The Bangor Symphony begins its 113th season in late September, 2008 with its classical series of music, holiday favorites and summer POPS programs.
The Bangor Symphony Orchestra is comprised of 65 to 90 musicians, most of whom live in Maine. They dedicate many hours to individual practice, rehearsal and performance so that you can hear and enjoy the highest quality orchestral music. They also hold other jobs, raise children and volunteer in their communities. They bring all of their special qualities into their music making.
