Community Programs

Connecting Music and Musicians to Residents

The Bozeman Symphony’s community engagement programs reach beyond the stage and into the communities in and around Bozeman. A broad array of high-quality musical offerings provides families, patients, and individuals with opportunities to experience classical music. Our free programs designed for every age and listener aim to create and strengthen connections between the Symphony and communities throughout the Greater Yellowstone region, spreading the love and joy of music to everyone.

Far Afield

For more than 30 years, the Bozeman Symphony has brought music to the hearts and minds of countless individuals not only in Bozeman but also to rural areas throughout the Greater Yellowstone region with our Far Afield community outreach program.

The Bozeman Symphony annually offers Far Afield programs to provide rural and underserved communities access to professional classical chamber music performances to inspire, engage, unite, and uplift people around Montana.


Bozeman Health Access Concerts

Access Concerts provides rural and healthcare communities access to professional chamber music performances. Recognizing the impact of music and community on mental and emotional health, these performances inspire, engage, unite, and uplift people of the Gallatin Valley, directly contributing to the quality of life.

This program is made possible through the generous support of Bozeman Health.


Memory Care

The Memory Care project is a unique way to improve quality of life, enrich daily life, and benefit memory care patients’ cognitive functions. In collaboration with family members and caregivers, the Bozeman Symphony curates engagements utilizing music that is meaningful to each patient in attendance. A non-traditional approach to memory care, this project can stimulate reactions in the brain responsible for memory, attention span, and executive function, enhancing interactions between patients and their loved ones.
