Vision
Orlando Sings seeks to create lively gathering spaces for people seeking a dynamic music community. We cultivate cultural exchange and believe that engaging in music can change people’s lives for the better.
About
Led by Artistic and Executive Director Dr. Andrew Minear, Orlando Sings presents a full season of professional concerts for year-round and seasonal residents, as well as students, tourists, and international visitors.
