“Arizona Philharmonic has carved out something unique: a professional orchestra that not only serves the region but also connects it to national and international currents in the arts,”

-John Duncan, Publisher of Prescott’s 5enses Magazine

“The orchestra and Peter Bay continue to outdo themselves every year.”

“AZ Phil knocked it out of the park. The violin soloist was amazing and the performance was flawless.”

“I am going to be a season ticket holder for AZ Philharmonic next season and encourage others to support this gem.”

“I have had season tickets for the Pops concerts for years, but have never been to or heard anything about AZ Philharmonic. The concert August 21st was spectacular in every way! What a wonderful experience.”

“The AZ Philharmonic, the conductor, soloists, musicians and the program was as impressive as any concert I attended at Carnegie Hall when I lived in New York City. Bravo!”

“This was the best concert I have been to. Enjoyed it so much! Wonderful and first class musicians~thank you! Your presence in our community is enriching and valuable~many thanks!”

“This orchestra continues to grow in maturity and community. A winning combination.”

“Exceptional performance. From the venue, to volunteers, staff and musicians, everything was so open and inviting. The best show in town!!”

“We expected to enjoy the concert, but we left feeling absolutely thrilled with the whole experience – the music selections, the soloist and the performances. We are so happy to realize what an excellent orchestra we have here in Prescott!”
