Naturally, the
people on stage are essential to the musical experience,
but everybody can play a part.
The Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra is a neighbor and community
partner that melds a sense of business with an overarching
passion for sound. For people who invest in it, it pays
substantial dividends in civic pride, cultural advancement
and personal satisfaction.
Your support is essential to
the Orchestra's artistic endeavors. A strong base
of contributed income ensures the artistic and fiscal
vitality of the Cincinnati Symphony and Pops, enabling
the orchestras to maintain their world-class status and
serve as an important source of enjoyment for the residents
of the Greater Cincinnati area. The Orchestra has been
referred to as the "crown jewel" of the Queen
City. Why? Because, through the financial infrastructure
built by thousands of donors, the CSO and Pops are able
to offer year-long performances as diverse as classical
and pops concerts at Riverbend and Music Hall, the free
Parks concerts, regional touring, Young Peoples' Concerts,
Lollipop Family Concerts, Music for Children and the Chamber
Players Series.
Who benefits from the Orchestra?
You do! And so, too, do the 400,000 people, from schoolchildren
to grandparents, who attend concerts or participate in
CSO programs.
Your donation to the CSO plays
an important part. In our growing donor community,
everybody can play an important part. By making a donation
to the Annual Fund, or through one of our other programs,
you'll have the satisfaction of knowing you are helping
the CSO and Pops serve as cultural ambassadors of the
Cincinnati community. Your donation makes a difference
to future generations who will experience the world-class
performances of the Symphony and Pops Orchestras.
