The FSO’s mission of “enriching lives through music” is essential in our efforts to offer access to the orchestra for our local communities! Whether it be through private concerts, free small ensemble concerts at local venues, performances at community events, or family music education programs – we want you to be informed about your Firelands Symphony Orchestra!
