In The Schools

With a focus on music education, LSO is excited to bring educational programs to the community through various enrichment and engagement opportunities.

Adopt-A-School Program

Musicians of the Longmont Symphony Orchestra perform in over 30 Saint Vrain Valley School District (SVVSD) schools annually, reaching more than 5,000 2nd-5th grade students. These ensembles consist of LSO string quartets, brass quintets, woodwind quintets, and percussion ensembles. The musical experience inspires young students to inquire about playing some of the instruments they see and hear with this LSO outreach, and inspire them to become part of the music programs at these district schools.

Annual 5th Grade Concert

The Longmont Symphony Orchestra performs two free concerts annually, at Vance Brand Civic Auditorium, located at Skyline High School, Longmont. This performance reaches over 2,400 5th grade students at the time in their school life, that musical instrument opportunities are introduced to them. This, in many cases, is the first time in their young lives that they experience hearing a live performance of a symphony orchestra, inspiring them to want to become a part of something musically exciting and inspiring.
