Monroe Symphony Orchestra
The mission of the Monroe Symphony Orchestra is to provide live, symphonic music of high artistic quality for the education and enjoyment of the people of Northeast Louisiana and the region.
For over forty years, the Monroe Symphony Orchestra has provided live, symphonic music of high artistic quality for the education and enjoyment of the people of Northeast Louisiana and the region. The Symphony's goals have included collaboration with other local and regional arts groups, bringing artists of national reputation to the community, providing opportunities for recognition of talented, young, Louisiana artists and seeking to reach out into the community with concerts that appeal to all segments of the population.
The Monroe Symphony Orchestra, founded in 1971, and was organized as a community orchestra. The subscription season, presented from October through May, consists of three classical concerts, a family concert in November, and a Patriotic Pops Concert in April. The MSO also presents Sound Safari, an educational concert offered to third, fourth, and fifth graders. As a viable and highly visible part of the arts community, the MSO also contributes to the cultural development of northeast Louisiana by bringing notable conductors and artists of national and international renown to perform with the orchestra.
During this 41st season, the MSO continues to bring the best of symphonic music to our community with its subscription series. A Membership provides season subscribers with a package of 4 concerts and membership levels are available at many price points.
A Monroe Symphony Orchestra subscription gives you more than a series of concerts; it gives you an exciting music education. Our Classical Conversations, led by Dr. Deborah Chandler take place during the Classical Concerts and allow the audience to share in the conductor's intent and personal rapport with the pieces to be performed. This allows you to be not just an observer, but a participant. Another reward for subscribing is the MSO's insightful newsletter, Symphony Notes, which keeps subscribers up-to-date on all upcoming Symphony events.
