OUR 50th ANNIVERSARY SEASON APPROACHES
Next season will be our 50th, and we have some very exciting programs in mind. Please celebrate with us. You may choose to contribute by sending a check to the Brattleboro Music Center with “Windham Orchestra 50th” in the memo line.
Stay tuned for all the details.
About Us
Join us in celebrating the richness of musical talent in our area
The Windham Orchestra, which was founded in 1969, features local musicians and composers. The 2018-2019 season marks our 49th year of making music together in Brattleboro, Vermont. We take pride in our history of providing symphonic music to Southeastern Vermont and our commitment to keeping classical music vital and building future audiences.
The Windham Orchestra serves four important roles in the musical community:
1) Performing live orchestral music in Brattleboro and surrounding towns;
2) Providing performance opportunities for musicians of all backgrounds;
3) Educating local school children; and
4) Providing an orchestral ensemble for performance of music by local composers.
