About Us

The Northern Dutchess Symphony Orchestra was formed in 2006 to bring live orchestral music to northern Dutchess County and the surrounding Hudson Valley area.

Now celebrating its 10th season, the orchestra ranges from 40 to 50 performers, depending on the repertoire. The 2015/16 concert season includes five main performances. Since the beginning, the orchestra has been conducted by Kathleen Beckmann who also serves as artistic director.
