The mission of the League of the Hilton Head Symphony Orchestra is to support and promote the activities of the Hilton Head Symphony Orchestra and the Hilton Head Youth Orchestra.  We invite you to share in our programs and our camaraderie.

The League of the Hilton Head Symphony Orchestra supports and promotes our wonderful Hilton Head Sumphony Orchestra and the Youth Programs through volunteers, fund-raising and special events. The League was established in 1997 and we now have a membership of over 350 women and men.

Our major fund-raising project is our very popular Sunday afternoon Musicales from September through February. What could be nicer than sharing good music followed by wine and hor d’oeuvres in elegant homes through out the winter months. These Musicales are open to League Members only

We are very involved with and provide volunteers for the Symphony Under the Stars, Concours D’Elegance and the International Piano Competition. We also host the pre/post concert receptions. We finish our year with our very popular Spring Fling which is a combination annual meeting and party.

We invite you to renew your membership or join us for the first time. Please call our Membership Chairman for further information at 843-689-2246 or download our membership application. Please fill it out and mail with your check for $35.00 for a single membership or $60.00 for a couple to Hilton Head Symphony Orchestra League, P.O Box 6095, Hilton Head Island, SC 29938.
