We're celebrating four decades of making classical music accessible to Milwaukee-area audiences, talented volunteer musicians, and young performers. We're honored to have been part of so many musical moments. For our anniversary year, we surveyed our musicians and audience members, and we're revisiting some of your favorite pieces from each decade of our performances. We'll kick it off with cake in October and have special guests and other surprises throughout the season. Also, in response to your requests, we're starting our evening performances at 7 p.m., an hour earlier. We hope the added convenience will encourage you to invite your friends and family members to join you as you join us for this very special anniversary season. Non-Profit Org.
