At the holidays, when The Phoenix Symphony comes to mind, we might first think of “The Messiah,” the New Year’s Eve Celebration or the Holiday Pops – all wonderful gifts to the community.
But maybe underappreciated are the many educational programs the Symphony provides to the Valley community throughout the year. These programs reach more than 125,000 youth and adults each year, many of whom are exposed to orchestral music for the first time in their lives. The Symphony plays a key leadership role in strengthening integrated arts education in Arizona, with a priority to engage underserved, low-income students, schools and neighborhoods.
