It is no secret that orchestras face formidable challenges in the twenty-first century. Our entertainment options today, fueled by a continual information stream, are no longer limited to what we might hear in a local theater or learn from shared conversations among neighbors. The handful of entertainment choices available a century ago has expanded exponentially. Symphonic music is at our fingertips, in the privacy of our homes and vehicles.

And yet, music builds bridges between generations, providing new pathways for us to develop. The GPO is inventive, thinking up new and fresh ways to encounter the joys of symphonic music, presented live, to bring communities together.

There is no substitute for the real thing.

Ticket revenue makes up about 20% of the Greeley Philharmonic Orchestra’s annual operating budget. The GPO continues to grow due to the generosity of its donors, sponsors, and advertisers. Special events and support by the Greeley Philharmonic Guild help to make up the difference to ensure the GPO can continue to make a lasting imprint in our community.
