For more than fifty years the Umpqua Symphony Association has been dedicated to bringing top quality classical music to our community.  Since 1955, the Roseburg community has enjoyed concerts given by world class performers including the Oregon Symphony, Eugene Symphony, Vienna Boys Choir, and Oregon Mozart Players.  Our seasons have included performances by symphonic bands, string quartets, brass quintets, vocal ensembles, pianists, and opera.  Each year the Association endeavors to present five varied concerts from October through May.

It is also a goal of the Umpqua Symphony Association to promote music education for our young people.  Workshops are given by many of our performers to enhance musical growth.  Complimentary student tickets are made available to local teachers to encourage young people to attend our concerts.  (See Student Ticket page)

The Umpqua Symphony Association is also the proud sponsor of the Douglas County Youth Orchestra which was founded in 1997 and has grown to more than one hundred players.  (see DCYO page)

The Umpqua Symphony Association is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and is very appreciative of financial support from individuals and businesses in our community.
