Courtney Lewis, Music Director, takes his step on the conductor’s podium for his eighth season to lead some of the world’s finest musicians in performances that continue to reach new levels of artistic excellence. The Symphony is committed to bringing the legacy of classical, pops and other genres of music to life. The Symphony is also creating history all of its own with five original commissions between the 2021/22 and the 2023/24 seasons. This season will feature the second world-premiere with renowned composer Sean Shepherd’s work.
As one of Northeast Florida’s most revered cultural institutions, the Symphony reaches over 113,000 individuals through over 125 performances every season in its acoustically superior home of Jacoby Symphony Hall and in venues throughout the state of Florida.

In its commitment to making a difference through music, the Symphony is a crucial leader in the community for introducing the joy of music to families through several programs that foster music education.

Continuing with its core belief that music is for all, the Symphony kicks off the season with two community concerts that are free to the public, so everyone can experience the awe and joy of a live, symphonic performance. Ensembles also tour across the region to bring the joy of music to smaller venues.
