The only professional orchestra on Staten Island, for over twenty years the Staten Island Symphony has provided the Staten Island community with a rich and beautiful repertoire of classical music. Under the direction of Music Director Jonathan Strasser since 1997, the Symphony is committed to excellence and to quality performances that make significant contributions to the cultural enrichment of Staten Island. Celebrating the rich and diverse cultural heritage of music from many traditions, the Symphony is critically praised for its performances of the music of composers as diverse as Bach, Beethoven, Bartok and Stravinsky.
