Those who have not had the opportunity to attend a San Bernardino Symphony Orchestra concert will now be able to go for free if they have a library card. The City of San Bernardino Public Library and the San Bernardino Symphony Orchestra recently partnered to provide free concert vouchers to all library patrons.
“This collaboration with the San Bernardino Symphony Orchestra aligns perfectly with our mission to support the community by providing access to a wide range of cultural experiences,” shared Library Director Ed Erjavek. “This partnership will connect patrons to an incredible San Bernardino institution, fostering a love for music that will resonate for years to come.”
Ticket certificates are available at all San Bernardino Library branches while supplies last. Each certificate is good for one ticket to a 2024 concert and multiple family members may obtain certificates providing each has a library card. There is a limit of one voucher per patron.
“We have designed our 95th season to inspire music lovers of all ages and interests and so we are particularly grateful to the San Bernardino Library system for this partnership designed to introduce orchestral music to more in our community,” said Symphony Executive Director Dr. Anne Viricel.
The Symphony will perform six concerts in 2024; most are matinees to accommodate greater family participation. The first, scheduled for March 2, premieres the new critical edition of Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue in honor of its 100th anniversary. Performances also include the Symphony’s annual “Music with the Maestro” performance showcasing television and cinema scores, the annual holiday concert, the annual concert under the stars with fireworks, a concert dedicated to Revolutionary Composers and an American jazz retrospective.
Concluded Symphony Board of Directors President Donna Marie Minano, “We believe music should be a shared human experience available to all and so it is with great anticipation that we look forward to welcoming new audiences to our performances,” said Donna Marie Minano, president of the Symphony board of directors.
