Mission Statement

The Beach Cities Symphony Association believes that music enriches individuals, whether performer or member of the audience, and the community at large. We promote the musical arts by volunteering our time and talents for the enjoyment and enhancement of both performers and audience.

The association fulfills this mission by presenting four free concerts from the Beach Cities Symphony Orchestra per year. The orchestra plays classical pieces ranging from the early to the contemporary, including works by local composers. Prize-winning young soloists are given an opportunity to perform with the orchestra. Most performers and soloists are members of the local community. Concerts are held in the community college.

Our goals are not only to entertain, but also to inform and educate the audience by means of newsletters, concert programs, and pre-concert lectures. We shall maintain our presence by continuing to solicit voluntary contributions from members, local businesses, foundations and other sources.
