Mesabi Symphony Orchestra

We are the people of Mesabi Symphony Orchestra. We are your friends, your neighbors, your kids’ teachers, people you worship with, people you see every day. We are united by our love of music. We are not professional musicians, although many of us are music teachers. Among our current and past members, we are diverse: an attorney, a surgeon, a chaplain, a flight instructor, data miners, baristas, a farmer, a retail store manager, a dog agility photographer, a geologist, a biologist, a nonprofit executive, a state legislator, a librarian, a graphic artist, college students, piano teachers, choir directors, a ski instructor, a rock climber, a WWII veteran who played in General MacArthur’s band, orchestra teachers, and active or retired band directors. Every Monday evening, we come together to rehearse so we can bring great orchestral music to Iron Range communities.
