Orchestra of the Southern Finger Lakes

The Orchestra of the Southern Finger Lakes (OSFL) has been bringing quality classical music to audiences throughout the Twin Tiers in upstate New York for over a hundred years. Formed as a merger of two orchestras in Corning and Elmira, the Orchestra of the Southern Finger Lakes provides opportunities to understand, share, and enjoy high-quality, live, classical music. The OSFL is also a strong supporter of highlighting the musical achievements of young musicians with its own Youth Symphony and Junior Strings programs, as well as the Hertzog Concerto Competition for young artists in grades 9 - 12. Under the guidance of our distinguished Music Director, Toshi Shimada, the OSFL currently offers four regular season full orchestra concerts, including a side by side Youth Orchestra and professional musician collaboration, a Musicians’ Choice chamber music series, concerts by the Chorus of the Southern Finger Lakes, several concerts by the Youth Orchestra and Junior Strings, as well as smaller ensemble concerts for children. The orchestra collaborates with regional cultural partners, artists, and like-minded organizations to advance our mutual artistic growth in the greater Elmira-Corning New York region.
