A weekend of breathtaking solos, vivid storytelling, and unforgettable music 🎻

We're still reminiscing on our 25/26 Season Finale with the Classics Series concert Scheherazade presented by AdventHealth Orlando.

What a fitting conclusion to an incredible Season with the spotlight on our musicians, added talent with the great Alessio Bax, and a reflection on artistic excellence with guest conductor Earl Lee.

Take a look back at some of our favorite moments. We can't wait to welcome you to the concert hall again soon in the 2026/2027 Season!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our 6th Annual OPO Summer Camp Concert on June 6!

For the first time, our Summer Camp students had the opportunity to perform in the world-class Steinmetz Hall at the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts.

Led by Summer Camp Artistic Director Dr. Mauricio Céspedes, our String Orchestra, Concert Band, and Full Ensemble showcased everything they worked on throughout camp. The program featured Mendelssohn's Sinfonia No. 10, Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, selections from Elgar's Enigma Variations, and music from Star Wars and The Mandalorian. We even welcomed a special guest conductor, Mateo Garcia!

We're grateful for the incredible support of our donors who made Summer Camp Scholarships possible, as well as everyone who joined us for this wonderful morning of music!

We are stronger together. 🏳️‍🌈

⚽ The 2026 FIFA World Cup kicks off today!

Who remembers when we transformed Inter&Co Stadium into a concert hall? 🎶

During the pandemic, the home of Orlando City Soccer Club gave us the space we needed to safely bring live music back to our community and created one of the most unique chapters in Orlando Philharmonic history.

With World Cup matches across North America now through July 19, we're cheering on the Orlando City players representing their national teams and, of course, Team USA! 🇺🇸
