Hampton Roads Philharmonic

We strive for artistic excellence, increase community awareness and participation in the performing arts, program a diverse repertoire selection, and create various educational opportunities and experiences.

To expand the impact of classical music within Hampton Roads, we have developed a series of programs that enrich both our community and our members. We provide four concerts throughout the year, offering an exciting program of classical music to our community. Outside of our main performances, we have chamber groups that perform at special events, nursing homes, vineyards, and other places. To get our community involved in classical music, we host a Young Artists Competition, inviting artists under the age of 21 to audition for the chance to collaborate and perform with the philharmonic.

The Hampton Roads Philharmonic has many built-in capabilities to set our organization for success. Our board members come from an array of strategic management fields and have experience within the performing arts industry. We also have volunteers who have experience with event management, grant writing, and other duties organizing chamber performances and concerts.

Since 2013, the Hampton Roads Philharmonic has sought to enrich the Hampton Roads community with classical music. We have achieved this by performing dozens of concerts both in Williamsburg and Downtown Hampton/Phoebus. Looking forward, we want to further our reach into the Newport News community and increase the number of performances we give annually.
