Tjeknavorian in mid fall.
About the Glendale Symphony Orchestra Since 1924, the Emmy Award
winning Glendale Symphony Orchestra has enhanced the quality of
life for literally hundreds of thousands of residents in the greater
Glendale area as well as all of Southern California and beyond. Over
the years the orchestra has gained international recognition for
quality even being asked to play for The Three Tenors during some of
their US performances. Since its very first concert, the symphony,
which ranks as one of the oldest and most prestigious operating
symphonic ensembles in the United States has been truly fortunate
with the generous support of its audience, community leaders and
the general public of music lovers. With a visionary commitment
to building a new orchestral repertoire for tomorrow, the Glendale
Symphony is continuing its 2010-2011 season with outstanding concert
performances, live outreach performances and education for young and
disadvantaged youth, including some free events to bring live music
to even more people.
