As a brand new orchestra, presenting our debut concert in 2013 at the Stern Auditorium of the CARNEGIE HALL, our budget rely solely on private donations and corporate sponsorships.
Your support at this point is vital as we take the baby step in establishing ourselves as an organization going forward. Your gifts will fund the orchestra to achieve what we set out to do according to our mission statements and visions. Epic works, beloved masterpieces will be masterfully studied and performed at our upcoming concerts, collaborating with fine artists from all nations who come together in New York City.
During our season, we will put forth our best efforts to prepare for the concerts, and to develop as well as establish our educational and outreach programs. We would like to express our profound gratitude for your partnerships and supports in our founding period.
