For 47 years, the Elgin Symphony League has been one of the principal supporters of our award-winning Orchestra. Each year, League members contribute their time and talents, along with being ambassadors to the community on behalf of the ESO. We invite you to join us at our League meetings and hear our guest speakers talk about their careers and interests.
