Cinderella Concert 5/9-Symphony Volunteers

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Springfield Symphony

  • Spots available: 10+

Once upon a time, in a world of shimmering melodies and wondrous dreams, a tale of transformation, love, and a missing slipper unfolds in Prokofiev’s ballet, Cinderella. We are joined once again by the Saint Louis Ballet under the direction of Gen Horiuchi in this audience-favorite fairy tale. From romantic duets and dizzying waltzes to the silly antics of the loathsome stepsisters, Cinderella is full of moments that charm and delight, and you’ll be swept away in a dream come true at our stunning season finale. Just remember to be home by midnight!

The Symphony will need volunteers to help with the following:

  • Taking pictures for Springfield Symphony attendees at our step-and repeat photo opportunity
  • Setting up food and drink at intermission reception for VIP donors and sponsors
  • Attending marketing tables pre-concert
  • Tearing down marketing signage
  • Assisting staff members with additional concert needs

All volunteers should arrive by 5:30pm. Volunteering will last until roughly 9:30pm. If you have any questions or concerns prior to volunteering, feel free to reach out to the Springfield Symphony Events Coordinator at events@springfieldmosymphony.org.

Description

About Us

The Springfield Symphony Orchestra (SSO) is Southwest Missouri's largest regional, professional orchestra and is one of two of the oldest arts organizations in Springfield. Each Symphony season includes nine subscription monthly concerts - six classical and three pops concerts; two free community concerts - a Halloween concert and a Holiday concert; and Education & Outreach programming. Symphony musicians are auditioned, hold a lifetime seat and are paid professionals.

The SSO was founded in 1934 after a group of Springfield High School (no known as Central High School) students approached their music teacher, James Robertson, about forming a civic orchestra. With Robertson as the conductor, the orchestra performed its first concert on February 26, 1935, in Clara Thompson Hall, on the campus of then Drury College. In 1936 a Board of Directors was formed and in 1942 the symphony joined 39 other orchestras from across the country in founding the American Symphony Orchestra League.
