The upcoming season will be my fourth year with the Green Bay Civic Symphony. These last three years have been a wonderful journey, including finding a new home at the lovely Meyer Theatre in downtown Green Bay and nearly doubling the size of our audiences. It is not an easy time we are living in, but with the common ground of music, we will grow, mature, and deliver exciting music to the community. Please join us in sharing our love of music in the 2008-2009 season.
