Classical music is one of the genres of music that LVCA
members are interested in and involved with. The Lebanon area has a
rich history of musical achievement and that continues with the
commitment of several institutions and organizations to keeping
the classical tradition alive and thriving in this region. The area
supports several orchestras whose members perform on a professional or
amateur basis. These include the Central Penn Symphony and the Hershey
Symphony.
In the local schools many fine teachers instruct children in
the various instruments which go to make up an orchestral or chamber
music group. At the college level Lebanon Valley College's rich music
tradition provides the area with a number of groups from both the
student body and from among the ranks of its instructors and is home to
a Kindermusik program bringing music and the joy of music making to the
very young.

There are a number of community bands who draw from the

Lebanon Valley on a regular schedule.
