Sorry, tickets to this experience are no longer available.

Ticket sales cover only 35% of our costs. Your donation will help the ESO continue to produce live classical music on stage and in our community. Music has the power to:

  • Heal the sick and those who serve them – when we play at local hospitals
  • Change the lives of children – when we play in schools and perform yearly Ainsworth Concerts for Youth for 10,000 students
  • Change our community for the better – through partnerships with Food for Greater Elgin, The Gail Borden Public Library, local Rotary Clubs, and other businesses and community organizations.

Donate Now!

The ESO is a 501(c)3 organization and donations are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
