The Marin Symphony season (October through May) consists of twelve concerts offering six programs of meticulously selected and performed classical music. Our featured works range from time-honored classical favorites to today's most fresh and innovative compositions.

The guest soloists we draw typically have attained worldwide renown, and are frequently regarded as some of the most exciting and up-and-coming of today's musical artists.

Our Maestro, Alasdair Neale, is quickly earning an international reputation for masterfully insightful and precise interpretations of the classical music repertoire. Consistently, he creates programs with powerful appeal to today's audiences. Standing ovations are not uncommon!
