A little about Litha
Symphony Orchestra
Through invigorating
interpretations from the symphonic literature, as well as arrangements of works
realized anew, the Litha Symphony Orchestra is committed to bringing the
excitement and energy of summer to its audiences and musicians alike. We are
New York's Premier Summer Ensemble.
Litha Symphony Orchestra
was founded in the spring of 2012 by a group of musicians who wanted to create
a summer outlet for performing classical orchestral music in the New York
Metropolitan area during the summer, which is traditionally an off-season for
most musicians and orchestras in the area. As the full orchestra performs
mostly during the summer, the orchestra chose to use the name Litha after the
goddess of the summer solstice as the signature name for the organization. Maestro
Eric Hayslett has been at the helm of the orchestra since the premier season,
where he has led the orchestra through three full seasons featuring a variety
of orchestral hits.
Help us finance Litha
Symphony Orchestra!
It takes a whole lot of
hard work, conviction and determination to keep the Litha Symphony Orchestra
going each year. However, this is not enough! LSO needs a budget of $5,500 this
year to cover all expenses. Expenses are categorized as follows: Artist fees,
Artist travel and Accommodation expenses, Venue rentals, Promotion and
Advertising expenses, Technical expenses (sound, lighting, etc.), and much more.
