The Chicago Philharmonic Society is a collaboration of over 200 of the highest-level classical musicians performing in the Chicago metropolitan area. Governed under a groundbreaking structure of musician leadership, the Society presents concerts at venues throughout the Chicago area that cover the full spectrum of classical music, from Bach to Bernstein and beyond. Founded nearly 30 years ago, the Chicago Philharmonic currently serves as the official orchestra of The Joffrey Ballet, continues its 25-year association with the Ravinia Festival, is a resident company of Harris Theater for Music and Dance, and performs regularly at the Auditorium Theatre, Symphony Center, and other great concert halls of the Chicago and North Shore area. In 2018, the Illinois Council of Orchestras honored the Chicago Philharmonic with the “Orchestra of the Year” award.
