The Duluth Superior Symphony Orchestra has been a vibrant presence in the region since 1932!

We are committed to providing high quality live orchestral music, exceptional and unique children's education and vibrant community engagement programs. But did you know that we are also the home for three Youth Orchestras and play in schools throughout the area?

The Symphony continues to grow and thrive because of people who value and recognize the important role music plays in the vitality of our community.

Ticket sales generate only fifty percent of the dollars needed to keep the Symphony viable. Your contribution not only gives the gift of music, but also supports the behind-the-scenes operations that are necessary to bring our musicians to the stage. We cannot do any of this without your support.

To make a secure on-line gift to the DSSO, click here or call or email Ann Elliott, Development Director, at 218-623-3774.
