South Kansas Symphony
The South Kansas Symphony and the Southwestern College Youth Symphony are non-profit groups funded by Southwestern College and by the generosity of individual and corporate sponsors. Contributions also come from alumni, friends, and ticket sales.
The South Kansas Symphony strives to provide musical memories for our audience with a variety of music for all ages. Talented musicians drawn from the collegiate and public communities enrich the ensemble. In addition, we hope the new acoustically-crafted Richardson Performing Arts Center and Callison Stage transport your listening experience to another level.
The Southwestern College Youth Symphony provides musical training and performance opportunities to talented students in South-Central Kansas and Northern Oklahoma. The youth symphony strives to maintain a rich heritage of classical music in our region, but has also added the “Lite Orchestra” this season for students interested in Eclectic Styles. The ensemble encourages students to achieve musical excellence, function as members of a team, and appreciate the talents of peers in the ensemble. Many musicians make lasting friendships with other members of the orchestra.
