Symphonic Tastings

Join musicians from the Fox Valley Symphony Orchestra for an easygoing, interactive series that uncovers the secrets of the orchestra and connects classical music to the music you already know and love.

The third session, Anatomy of the Orchestra, takes you inside the orchestra to explore its different sections, discover the roles each instrument plays, and see how they all work together to create one incredible sound.

🎻 Each one-hour session includes:

• Beer & cheese tasting

• A chance to try real orchestral instruments

• A Fox Valley Symphony ticket giveaway

• Discounted symphony tickets available for purchase

• Plenty of music, conversation, and absolutely no classical-music expertise required

🍺🧀 Beer & Cheese Tasting

The first 10 attendees will receive a voucher for a tasting.

$6 per tasting cup, which includes:

• A half-serving of beer (na options will also be available)

• A selection of local cheeses

Come curious. Have a drink. Pick up an instrument. And discover just how much of the symphony you already know.
