The Jackson Heights Orchestra, a proud initiative of the Jackson Heights Beautification Group, is dedicated to enriching our diverse neighborhood through the transformative power of live classical music. We believe that every community deserves access to engaging orchestral performances, and we're committed to making this vision a reality right here in the heart of Queens.
This December, we're presenting a spectacular holiday concert that celebrates both the classical tradition and the festive spirit of the season. From Coleridge-Taylor's elegant Idyll to the triumphant Hallelujah Chorus from Handel's Messiah, from Haydn's dramatic Symphony No. 26 to beloved holiday arrangements including music from Home Alone, our program offers something magical for every member of our community. We're especially excited to perform the first movement of Tchaikovsky's Winter Dreams, a perfect musical embodiment of the season.
Your support makes these performances possible. Every dollar donated goes directly toward venue rental, music licensing, personnel fees and the essential costs of bringing high-quality orchestral music to Jackson Heights. All Jackson Heights Orchestra concerts are free for community members to attend. By sponsoring a specific piece or movement, you become a vital part of our musical family and help ensure that our neighbors can experience the joy of live orchestral music without traveling to Manhattan or paying high ticket prices.
We've structured our fundraising so that you can sponsor the specific music that speaks to your heart. Whether you're drawn to the baroque grandeur of Haydn's symphony, the festive cheer of our holiday arrangements, or the stirring power of Handel's masterpiece, your contribution directly supports the performance of that work. Together, we can reach our goal and continue building a vibrant cultural life in Jackson Heights. Join us in making beautiful music for our beautiful community!
