Free Concerts Throughout our Community

An Invitation from the Philadelphia Orchestra Musicians:
 
One Monday each fall, The Philadelphia Orchestra Musicians (POM) voluntarily organize and donate a Day of Music throughout the greater Philadelphia area.  This year, join us September 23rd for a series of free, informal small ensemble concerts, a token of appreciation to the Philadelphia area community. We'll perform in 25-30 different venues throughout the day, including schools, churches, public plazas, libraries, retirement homes, coffee shops, and even SEPTA stations. We hope to reach as many of our neighbors as possible with these up close and personal musical experiences, so that we can spread the joy and sense of meaning that music can bring to our lives. Come enjoy the music and get to know us! For a complete listing of events, click here!

A nice short article featuring our own Associate Principal Trumpet Jeff Curnow is in Saratoga Living!

​Congratulations to our retiring colleagues whose final concert was last evening! Associate Principal Percussion Anthony Orlando played for 46 years, Principal Oboe Richard Woodhams, 41 years and Associate Principal Flute David Cramer, 37 years. It’s been an honor making music with you!

We are pleased to present our 4th Annual Philadelphia Orchestra Musicians (POM) Audience Appreciation Day!
