Augusta Symphony Soirée

Spend a summer evening enjoying live chamber music in an intimate setting while supporting the Augusta Symphony Orchestra's mission to continue to bring free concerts to central Maine.

The Augusta Symphony Soirée is a special fundraising event featuring a chamber music concert made up of Augusta Symphony musicians, including Music Director and Conductor Jinwook Park, a talented violinist. Set in the cozy Fireside Lounge at the University of Maine at Augusta, this unique concert offers a rare opportunity to experience the artistry of ASO musicians up close in a relaxed and elegant atmosphere.

More than just a concert, the Soirée is an evening of music, conversation, and community. Guests are invited to gather with fellow music lovers, meet members of the orchestra, enjoy refreshments, and celebrate another exciting season of the Augusta Symphony Orchestra.

As the ASO's only ticketed event of the year, the Soirée plays an important role in supporting the orchestra's mission of providing free admission to its regular season concerts. Every ticket purchased helps offset the costs of music, guest soloists, rehearsal space, concert venues, and other operating expenses, ensuring that audiences of all ages and backgrounds can continue to enjoy live symphonic music without financial barriers.
