Support the Chicago Philharmonic
The Chicago Philharmonic, one
of the country’s finest symphonic orchestras,
features superb musicians from all around the Chicago
area. The
Chicago Philharmonic is unique among Chicago-based
orchestral ensembles In that it’s core consists of
performers from Lyric Opera’s orchestra along with a
number of Chicago’s top freelancers who complete the
ensemble. These talented musicians have one
thing in common - a passion for the opportunity to
be showcased in a symphonic setting while playing
some of the most beautiful and inspiring music ever
written.
For the past twenty years, the Chicago Philharmonic
has consistently brought you orchestral performances
of the highest professional quality, in convenient
and intimate venues, and at a most reasonable
price. We rely on the generous gifts made by our
loyal supporters. In these challenging economic
times, we need your help more than ever. By being
part of our family of donors, you can help ensure a
strong future for the orchestra.
Join us in celebration as we enter our third decade
of making music. JPF Richter
once described music as "the poetry of the air".
It makes
the heart sing, and is one of life’s greatest
treasures. Help keep the music alive! We can only succeed
with your generous support.

Families to the Philharmonic
Live music experiences can
play a crucial role
in inspiring a child to
develop an abiding love for
the art form of classical
music. The Chicago
Philharmonic is pleased to
offer a new program where
individuals can sponsor not
only a child, but also that
child's immediate family, to
attend one of the Chicago
Philharmonic's concerts. We
feel that the family's
participation is an
important part of helping to
nurture and explore that
child's awareness of
classical music, also
enabling the entire family
to participate in an
artistic endeavor together.
Give the wonderful gift of
live classical music to a
family that is less
fortunate than yours. For
a generous gift of $50, the
Chicago Philharmonic will
connect your donation with a
family in need.

Side by Side
The Chicago Philharmonic is currently developing
Side by Side a mentoring program geared toward
middle and high school students. The program
provides top level guidance to students in the
school setting and an opportunity to sit in the
orchestra with their mentors for a rehearsal session
of a major classical work. Program debut April
2010.
Dream Builders
Also in the works is Chicago Philharmonic's new
Dream Builders program in partnership with an area
music school. Orchestra and community members
donate used instruments to be used in a free loan
program. The music school will connect the students
in need with their instrument of choice.
NEXT!
The Chicago
Philharmonic started a new program titled NEXT!,
creating an opportunity for fresh young talents to
perform in the foyer before the concert and have the
opportunity to be heard by Chicago Philharmonic
patrons, musicians and conductors. This season the
CPO welcomed a Japanese flute player, a woodwind
quartet from UIC and an inner city teen marimba
ensemble from Merit Music School.
