Crescendo Society
Young Professionals of the Colorado Symphony
Join an enthusiastic group of young professionals and receive discounted tickets, meet the musicians, attend happy hours, and much more ♦

The Crescendo Society is a membership group of local young professionals that share an interest in supporting live, symphonic music through the Colorado Symphony. The mission is to foster a community of young professionals while creating a deeper awareness and appreciation for the Colorado Symphony among the next generation. Each season, members attend select Classics concerts together, including a designated seating area, and meet-ups at VIBE before or after the performance.
