Central Oregon Symphony Association

The Central Oregon Symphony is unique – its musicians are not paid - they devote countless volunteer hours to the task of creating a magical, full season of classical concerts for all members of our community to enjoy. This combined with unique partnerships in the community and our generous donor base; we are able to provide unreserved tickets at no cost, making this substantial art form available to everybody in the community. From modest beginnings in 1967, the orchestra has grown to become a major player in the local fine arts scene. Last year, over individuals, children and families enjoyed symphony concerts. Central Oregon Symphony Association COSA, Inc. is a non-profit organization that provides logistical and financial support to the Central Oregon Symphony. The COSA board of directors is composed of music lovers who meet monthly with the conductor and executive director to plan activities that include fundraising, communication with the community, ticket distribution, production of brochures and programs, ushering, and much more.
