Our musicians come from all corners of the state. Some hosts have already volunteered to offer a room or rooms to our musicians! Typically, we are in need of approximately fifteen accommodations per concert.

The expense of providing a place for our musicians to stay is lessened with your generous donation to host a musician or musicians. If you have a spare room, guest house or other accommodations that you would be willing to share for a few evenings around concert time, your help will save your SCSO over $50,000 every year.

Most importantly, this is a great opportunity to get to know the musicians of your SCSO. It is a wonderful opportunity to support the Symphony and meet new people. Many of our hosts consider “their” musicians as great friends! Thank you in advance for your consideration to help your SCSO and our musicians.

If you are interested in hosting a musician for our concerts this season, please fill out the form below. Our host home coordinator, Deb Johnson will reach out to you following your form submittal.


Being a host family is an experience that is both rewarding and enriching. I’d love to share just a few of the highlights over the past year.  Meeting a young violinist, Danut and his Dad who came all the way from Romania.  Learning about the newest innovations in music notation software  with John.  Sitting in on a music lesson given by an outstanding teacher, William.  Having a private horn concert in our living room by Jennifer. Sipping wine at midnight with the always charming violist, Juan Carlos.  Diversity is a treasure and music, the international language of love.  Thank you, SCSO, for giving us the opportunity to spread that love and call all these wonderful musicians our friends.”
