Giving

The BSO is redefining what it means to be a symphony in the world today. We’re elevating our musical excellence, expanding our audience and reach, enhancing the concert-going experience, and working with community partners to bring acclaimed music education opportunities to more of Maryland’s youth. We’re changing lives through music, and you can too. Join us.

SPECIAL OPPORTUNITY TO DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT!

You and the BSO make a great duo, united by a passion for music that inspires and uplifts. Now, thanks to The Sherman Family Foundation, we can form a trio that makes the symphonic music you love more accessible to children and families across Maryland.
 
Through August 2025, every new or increased gift to the BSO will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $1 million! So, whether you are joining the BSO for the first time or upgrading your generous support, the Sherman Family Foundation will match it with a gift to support BSO family and youth programming. Don’t miss this opportunity to make your membership work even harder for music, education, and community!
