The DuPage Symphony Orchestra is made up of highly talented volunteer musicians, all eager to share their love of music with listeners of all ages.

Classical music offers numerous benefits:

• Listening to music provides inspiration, promotes relaxation, sparks creativity, boosts memory, reduces stress, alleviates depression, and helps those with special needs communicate.
• Studying music at a young age helps increase vocabulary, builds self-esteem, promotes creativity, and improves physical dexterity.
• Performing music teaches self-discipline, teamwork, and emotional expression.

Hearing music in live performance is one of the most thrilling experiences of all: the music sounds vibrant, immediate, and alive; you can literally feel the passion of the players on stage; and you, the listener, become part of a very special musical journey.

Whether you are a music aficionado who wants to know more about our rich and varied repertoire or a brand new listener who wants to understand the very basics of orchestral music, we can assure you that our DSO concerts provide an exceptional listening experience for all.
