Dorchester Symphony Orchestra

Mission Statement

The mission of the Dorchester Symphony is to enrich the cultural life of the community by providing orchestral music of the highest quality and fostering the appreciation of classical music among its residents and young audiences. The DSO holds concerts in local concert halls, churches, schools, and parks. In addition to concerts, the DSO will frequently present educational programs for Dorchester's young people. These events called "Meet The Orchestra" will introduce local children to classical music and hopefully inspire and encourage them to take up an instrument. At these sessions the children can meet the orchestra members, have a look at their instruments and see how they're played. We believe that playing an instrument is one of the more rewarding things a child can do and learning to play one will enrich their lives.
