A note from our board PResident

Dear friends of the Euclid Symphony Orchestra and valued patrons,

We’re excited to announce our 2024-2025 season, led by the talented Jimmie A. Parker, Sr., returning for his second year as music director. Maestro Parker, a versatile musician and leader in classical, jazz, and contemporary music, also founded the Color of Music Composers and Conductors Academy, promoting minority representation in classical music. We’re thrilled to have him back and invite you to join us in supporting his vision.

This season, we aim to raise $15,000 to continue to be able to offer affordable, high-quality concerts that showcase the incredible talent of our 40+ volunteer performers. Your donation is crucial to sustaining and growing our orchestra, a cherished community arts institution serving Euclid for over 60 years. Rising costs means ticket sales alone can’t sustain us, so we need your help to keep the music alive.

The Euclid Symphony Orchestra is seeking your financial support to ensure the continuation of this local success story. We are grateful for any support you can offer. Your generous contributions play a pivotal role in enabling us to:
  • Present a full season of affordable and accessible, high-quality orchestral concerts for our community.
  • Showcase the exceptional talent of over 40 volunteer performers from within and beyond Euclid.
  • Sustain and expand our local community arts institution, enriching our lakefront city with over half a century of musical excellence.

Contribution Levels:
• Conductor ($1,000+)
• Concertmaster ($500-$999)
• Assistant Concertmaster ($250-$499)
• Principal ($100-$249)
• Assistant Principal ($50-$99)
• Musician ($25-$49)
• Friend ($1-$24)

Donations can be made by clicking the button below or by mail to P.O. Box 32081, Euclid, Ohio 44132

Donations made to ESO are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.  All sponsors will be listed in this season’s concert programs. As an added gift, all donors will receive one complimentary ticket for every $25 donated. Your tickets will be available for you at the box office will call window. 

Together we can keep the music playing in Euclid for years to come. Thank you for your consideration and continued support of local arts and culture, and we look forward to seeing you at our next performance. 

Thank you,
​Rachel Schindler
