Brooklyn Philharmonic Moving Forward:
Throughout the last year, the Brooklyn Phil has taken a closer look at the Orchestra's identity. Our path forward is to become Brooklyn's orchestra in a way we have never done before. We will perform throughout the borough celebrating Brooklyn's diverse cultural and musical scenes. Through the process of collaborating with other cultural groups, the Orchestra will be a key player in what has become the most vibrant music community anywhere in the country. Meanwhile, we'll continue to grow our nationally recognized music education programs. We think this combination makes a powerful musical statement.
Join us this upcoming season and become a part of The Sound of Brooklyn. Click here to sign up for our e-newsletter and stay in touch!
