A Message from Frank Giordano, President & CEO

Hello, friends!

All of us here at The Philly POPS are thrilled by the wonderful support that has been extended to our orchestra. Under the direction of Maestro Michael Krajewski, we are creating extraordinary programming and performances that are attracting new audiences, with ticket sales and subscription renewals at an all-time high. The feedback has been an astounding sign of approval for Michael and the entire POPS team, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

As we move forward, we are adding new programs and community engagement opportunities that allow us to enrich the lives of young people and connect with new audiences throughout the Delaware Valley and beyond. Last year, we performed at Avery Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center in New York and other venues through the Mid-Atlantic States. This year, we have been invited to perform at Longwood Gardens and to return to Cape May, with many additional requests coming from all over the country for The Philly POPS to “take our show on the road.”

There is nothing more important to me than offering you the highest quality music through fun and engaging performances. While Michael’s sense of humor has won over thousands of guests in our audiences, we have also added more surprises and extra attractions, like pre-concert performances in Commonwealth Plaza at The Kimmel Center.

We hope you’ll come and enjoy our 2015/16 season. Bring your friends ... bring the whole family! There is truly something for everyone at a Philly POPS concert. And let us hear from you. We want to know what you think — whether we can improve your experience or add more of the music you know and love to hear.

With great appreciation,
