Wishing You an Inspired Holiday Season & Happy New Year!

As we approach the close of the year, we extend heartfelt wishes for an inspired holiday season and a happy new year!

Reflecting on the past year, we are filled with gratitude for the moments of joy, curiosity, and the profound sense of shared humanity that emerges when we connect with our communities.

One of the Chicago Sinfonietta's core principles is grounded in the conviction that music has the power to spark societal transformation, paving the way for a more inclusive and artistic world. Our dedicated community of friends and supporters plays a vital role in enabling us to carry out this crucial mission of advancing social change and cultivating a deeper sense of connection through the transformative medium of music.

Immerse yourself in the captivating blend of jazz, blues, and classic symphonic elements found in Chicago Sinfonietta’s African Heritage Symphonic Series, Vol. 1. Described as a highly original and thought-provoking creation, this symphony promises an enjoyable and unique musical experience (Victor Carr Jr, Classics Today). We're thrilled to share this recording on YouTube for all to enjoy.

Looking ahead to the coming year, our collective wish is to reaffirm the vital role of artistic expression in upholding our fundamental social change and reinforcing our shared humanity. We aspire for the Chicago Sinfonietta to remain a dynamic hub for diverse communities and a sanctuary for those seeking inspiration, connection, and understanding through the transformative power of music.

May your holiday season be adorned with optimism and light. We eagerly anticipate the joy of welcoming you to the Chicago Sinfonietta in 2024!

Please consider making a year-end gift today to sustain the incredible legacy embodied every day at the Chicago Sinfonietta.

Blake-Anthony Johnson,

President & CEO & CS Staff
