Each year, the North Carolina Symphony’s 300 concerts, education programs, and community engagement events are enjoyed by adults and schoolchildren in more than 90 North Carolina counties. The Symphony’s full-time professional musicians perform under the artistic leadership of Music Director Grant Llewellyn, delivering orchestral experiences of the highest quality and collaborating with renowned performers that range from classical artists, to bluegrass musicians, to jazz bands. NCS leads the most extensive education program of any symphony orchestra, engaging 70,000 students annually. The Symphony makes its home in the spectacular Meymandi Concert Hall at the Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts in Raleigh. NCS travels 18,500 miles per year for performances throughout the state, including its concert series in Chapel Hill, Fayetteville, New Bern, Southern Pines, and Wilmington, as well as its Summerfest concerts at Koka Booth Amphitheatre in Cary. Founded in 1932, NCS performs under the auspices of the North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources.
