About Us
The Cape Symphony started as a community orchestra more than half a century ago. Since then, it has become one of the largest orchestral organizations in Massachusetts. Artistic Director and Conductor Jung-Ho Pak leads a polished and professional ensemble of 75 musicians, joined by emerging and world-class soloists to bring innovative and accessible programming to the community.
Featured guest artists have included pianists Jon Nakamatsu, Freddy Kempf and Ignat Solzhenitsyn, along with violinists Joshua Bell, Jennifer Frautschi, Miriam Fried, Ayako Yoshida and Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg. Virtuosos David Shifrin, clarinet, James David Christie, organ, and Paul Neubauer, viola, have also appeared with the orchestra. Jazz great John Pizzarelli, trumpeter Byron Stripling and soprano Megan Weston have energized CapePOPS concerts.
The Cape Symphony season includes ten Masterpiece, twelve CapePOPS performances and a New Year’s Day Party concert, all held in the 1400-seat Barnstable Performing Arts Center in Hyannis, MA. During the summer, the orchestra performs to thousands of residents and vacationers at outdoor events.
