WHO WE ARE

The Austin Philharmonic Orchestra is an all-volunteer group from the Central Texas area whose focus is performing the great classical and contemporary orchestral works. We come from varied backgrounds - surgeon and college student, realtor and retiree - with the common desire to share the moving experience of immersing ourselves in living music by performing for the Austin community. We invite everyone to attend our concerts which, with rare exception, are open to all and which are always free of charge.
