With 45 annual performances statewide in concert halls, beautiful natural settings, and historic and community buildings, the Vermont Symphony Orchestra has proven its value and sustainability, not only as the nation’s oldest state-supported orchestra, but as one of the finest of its size. In addition to concert programming, over 175 school performances are provided annually, reaching 45% of Vermont’s school children. The VSO serves year round with outreach programs, children’s concerts, and composer residencies, as well as choral and chamber music concerts.
