The mission of the Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra is to serve our community through outstanding musical listening and learning experiences. Our vision is that symphonic music is a part of of everyday life throughout our community. The KSO is committed to providing our community with musical excellence through our outstanding musicians and innovative, diverse programming.
Contributing to the educational environment in the community is so important to the KSO that we offer over 20 education and community programs to fill voids in area classrooms, enhance the educational experience for students, foster talent and appreciation among young musicians, provide greater access to underserved audiences, and enable adults to continue to learn and experience music.
