The Missouri Philharmonic Orchestra (MPO) is Southwest Missouri’s premier civic orchestra. MPO’s professional, amateur and student musicians are solely focused on serving the community through the creation of beautiful music, crafted through intentional immersion in the musical elements.
Our Mission Statement
As a conduit of the arts, the Missouri Philharmonic Orchestra (MPO) strives to touch and enrich people’s lives through the musical arts. MPO brings together a diverse group of retirees, music professionals, accomplished amateurs, and student musicians to develop and share their giftings and passion for the arts through low cost and free concerts for the community and, especially, underserved populations who do not typically engage with symphony orchestras due to social barriers, economic barriers, and/or lack of exposure to symphonic music. MPO strives to make the symphony barrier-free and a relaxed and welcoming environment for both the musically curious and the musically conversant to build relational bridges with others and to foster goodwill, interest, support, and education for the musical arts among the broader community. MPO believes that orchestral music is intended for everyone and models this philosophy both within its members and the outreach concerts it performs.
