Why sponsor the LSO Valentine Ball?
The LSO has served the people, institutions and businesses of the greater La Crosse area by elevating its cultural climate.
IT DOES THIS IN SEVERAL WAYS:
• The LSO presents a Symphony for Youth concert day annually for area
public and private school children in Grades 3-5. Each year over 3,000 children attend these concerts. • In January 2018, the LSO will host the 19th Annual Rising Stars Concerto Competition. Many of the competitors hail from the Coulee Region. The winners of this competition are awarded a cash prize and the opportunity to perform with the LSO at the March concert. • The LSO awards 11 String Scholarships to area elementary, middle and high school students for lessons with LSO musicians. • The LSO, in collaboration with the Boys & Girls Club of Greater La Crosse, School District of La Crosse, and La Crosse Area Youth Symphony Orchestra initiated a new program, Play It Forward-La Crosse, a community used instrument drive, and the BGC Fine Arts Music Program, an after school instrumental music education program at one of the La Crosse Clubs. Donated instruments will give many students who cannot afford to pay for an instrument or private music lessons the opportunity for instrumental music education. • The La Crosse Symphony Orchestras Maestro School Program seeks to musically educate and enlighten young people in the Coulee Region by sending its Music Director, Alexander Platt, into actual rehearsals of the high school and middle school bands and orchestras. • The Conductor Wannabe Competition is a spirit of collaboration. The LSO asks each of the six candidates to choose a non-profit organization that will receive half of the money they each raise during the campaign. Each “vote” is $2 – $1 going to the LSO and the other $1 going to the candidate’s chosen charity. The winner and runner-up with the most votes received make their conducting debuts with the LSO at the June concert.
