FOUNDED in 2009 by conductor Devin Patrick Hughes and business leader Anthony Santelli, Boulder Symphony is a community-focused orchestra with a drive to enhance the music scene in Boulder and beyond. Themed “Intrepid Explorers,” the Symphony’s inaugural season reflected an artistic vision of commitment to consistent innovation and the joy of discovery through audience participation, youth outreach, and creating modern relevance to the long-standing art form that is the classical music genre.

Now, in its tenth anniversary season, Boulder Symphony is actively performing Symphonic Music’s most monumental repertoire and presenting flash mobs, fully-staged operas, and many world premieres, including Gray Rain, a Global Music Award winner work by Colorado-born and Grammy-Nominated composer Austin Wintory. Some of the many stepping stones in creating what Boulder Symphony is today include serenading audiences at the Boulder Farmer’s Market, showcasing young soloists who go on to win national competitions, and being featured in the documentary film Song of the Untouchable. Also, the developments of a high school apprenticeship program, in school coaching program, and the new GLOW project (dementia-friendly concerts) go hand-in-hand with the Symphony’s goal of providing a meaningful platform for musicians from all walks of life to access high-level, heart-filling music.

Connectivity and vibrancy within the community are the driving force behind Boulder Symphony and we invite you to join us in this exciting artistic adventure!
