Lewisville Lake Symphony celebrates 25th anniversary
Both the Texas House and Senate recently approved Resolutions honoring the Lewisville Lake Symphony for bringing 25 seasons of music to North Texas.
"In the beginning, we simply rehearsed once a week until we felt 'ready' and there were times when the orchestra outnumbered the audience. The players were all volunteers and the music was borrowed," said Adron Ming, the Orchestra’s Music Director and Conductor for the entire 25 years.
Ming said that the Symphony, with the support of very dedicated volunteers on the business side, gradually evolved into an all-professional paid orchestra with all members belonging to the American Federation of Musicians.
"We had also grown to the point that we were able to move rehearsals and performances to Lakeland Baptist Church, which has great acoustics and plenty of room for the audience size the Symphony now attracts."
