The Pursuit of the Podium winner and total amount raised will be announced at the final classics concert of the 2019-20 season: May 2-3 at Five Flags Theater.
Pursuit of the Podium supports a variety of initiatives consistent with the DSO’s mission, which is to engage the tri-state community and enrich its quality of life through live musical performances and educational programs. The DSO will serve approximately 25,000 people this year. Since Pursuit of the Podium was first introduced during the 2012-2013 season, twenty-six community leaders have participated and raised more than $175,000.
