Membership Benefits
Being a part of the Philharmonic Association allows you to continue playing your instrument in a fun atmosphere with other people that are there to have fun making music. We generally perform a concert at least once per term, as well as have several other performance opportunities both on and off campus. You also have can join the Philharmonic Chamber Players and play in smaller chamber groups as well as a small chamber orchestra.
