Our annual Pops Concert under the stars, featuring show tunes, movie music, marches, patriotic songs, and light classical music. Bring a picnic basket and a lawn chair and join us under the stars for a memorable evening in “small town America.”
There will also be concerts this season by our “up and coming” Junior and Strings Orchestras, so watch the local newspapers, follow us on Facebook (Tehachapi Symphony Orchestra) and check our website: www.tehachapiorchestra.com for more information.
The Symphony Board of Directors has always felt that live classical music should be provided to everyone in the community, regardless of their ability to purchase tickets, so our concerts have always been presented for free. However, it costs about $40,000 to fund a season. This means that the Symphony is always busy raising money to fund our next season and looking for more local players to join us in our music-making.
We would like to build a more sustainable base of K Club members ($1,000 or more donation) who renew each year. If you are able to join the K Club, please take this opportunity to do so. A special thanks to those of you who have been in the K Club for many years.
We could not provide all this exciting music without you!
