Mission

The Great Falls Symphony is dedicated to producing musical programs of the highest quality and strives to be a resource for creative expression, artistic development, economic vitality and continuing music education for the people of Montana.

Our fiftieth anniversary is a milestone we'll celebrate with every concert this season. We honor the past and strive for even higher achievements into the next 50 years, continuing our tradition of exceptional music and extraordinary musicians.

Symphony night is an experience that's meant to be shared. Live music is at the center of it, plus the fun of dressing up, seeing friends, being part of a community. On concert night, our little prairie town is transformed into the glitter and glamour of a big city symphony experience.

With virtuoso guest artists chosen to delight and amaze, you won't want to miss any of these concerts. If you do, you're sure to hear about it from a friend and be sorry you weren't there!

In our final celebratory concert of the season, we welcome world-renowned classical guitarist Christopher Parkening and baritone Jubilant Sykes to our World Artist Series. It's a thrill for us to play alongside musicians of this caliber, and to share our joy in music-making with you.

Whether you're a longtime symphony lover, or a new friend ... this is the year to join us as we seek the ultimate high note.
