QSOA

Welcome to the Quincy Symphony Association’s website. Last season marked a milestone 60th anniversary for our organization and also represented my first season as conductor. It was a fulfilling (and busy) initiation! Our planning and programming for 2007-2008 was directed towards the organization’s history and development and we all celebrated the growth, progress and achievements of those sixty years.

After the celebration and accomplishment of the 60th season, what’s next? Our 2008-2009 season features important works with a world vision as we embrace the nationalism of Russia, France and America. “Windows on the World” brings our audiences the music of Tchaikovsky, Shostakovich, Debussy, Faure, and Copland. Our soloists and guest narrator include pianist Tammie Walker, clarinetist Joe Dieker, and Congressman Ray LaHood.

The 60th anniversary season also marked a substantial growth in audience development. I invite you all to buy your season tickets early and encourage a friend and relative to follow your lead. Come join us in the 2008-2009 season and share in our international explorations!.
