This concert season, we`re inviting everyone to "See Where Music Takes You." This summer, we`re turning the spotlight on our musicians to discover where music is taking them -- both on and off the stage! 🌤🎶

Our very own Principal Tuba, Joseph Alvarez, had the amazing opportunity to be part of an unforgettable alumni event with the Phantom Regiment Drum and Bugle Corps in Indianapolis, Indiana!

Celebrating their 70th Anniversary, Phantom Regiment brought together alumni spanning six decades for an incredible performance at the Drum Corps International Championships.

What a special way to celebrate such an incredible legacy! ❤️🖤

We’re still smiling from the unforgettable energy of our Patriotic Pops concert over Memorial Day weekend!

🎶 Incredible music
🇺🇸 A moving tribute to our military
💃 An impromptu dance party during a brief rain shower
✨ And a dazzling drone show finale that people are still talking about

A special thank you to the outstanding guest artists who joined our musicians, including the Key Chorale, vocalist Qiana Miles, and the talented father-daughter trumpet duo of Ken & Reneé McGee. Your performances helped make the evening truly memorable.

We also want to thank our partners who helped us put this Star Spangled Spectacular together -- including Community Foundation of Sarasota County, @skyworxdroneshows & CoolToday Park.

Another concert season. Another SPECTACULAR finale. We’ll see you back in October! 🎻❤️

We Love Baltimore! ❤️🦀

Our team had a wonderful time in “Charm City” attending this year’s League of American Orchestras Conference. It was a great opportunity to connect with orchestra professionals from across the country, exchange ideas, and gain valuable insights from inspiring speakers.

One of the highlights of the trip was experiencing an incredible performance by the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, with special guest artists Demarre McGill, Anthony McGill & Cécile McLorin Salvant!

We’re always proud to represent Venice, Florida, and The Venice Symphony wherever we go. 🎶✨
