The orchestra's outreach programs for the community include the Denver Young Artists Orchestra and the The Crescendo Society for young professionals. The 2019-20 season will include noteworthy performances such as Verdi's

Requiem

as well as

The Nightmare Before Christmas

, which is a Movie at the Symphony event.

'An Incubator of Musical Innovation'

'Many orchestras depend on generous donations so that they can tour outside of the city and state. The Colorado Symphony Orchestra is an active member of the Denver community as well as the state of Colorado. The organization actively works with leading musical artists in Colorado, cultural organizations and corporations as well as foundations to expose as many as 300,000 individuals annually to the power of music. Although they focus on classical music, they also are not shy about being an incubator for musical innovation, creativity, and excellence.'
