A look at an Augusta Symphony Orchestra performance from the musicians' perspective on the stage.

The Augusta Symphony Orchestra is more than a century old, having played its first concert in Augusta City Hall back in 1921. In recent years, the orchestra hired a new Music Director and Conductor, Jinwook Park, and in doing so set the orchestra on a new path. Joining us to talk about this are two guests – Jinwook Park himself along with a member of the orchestra and its board of directors, Necia Enoch.

For more about the Augusta Symphony Orchestra and its 2025-26 season, which kicks off on Sunday November 2, go to augustasymphonymaine.org.
