Akron Symphony Orchestra

Christopher Wilkins became Music Director of the Akron Symphony in the fall of 2006. Since then the orchestra’s programming has reflected his strong interest in community-oriented projects. He has developed partnerships with many artists and organizations based in Northeast Ohio, including the Akron Art Museum, Akron-Summit County Public Library, Firestone High School, Summit County Historical Society, YEPAW 365, GroundWorks Dance Theater, Neos Dance Theatre, and the Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

A concert Saturday will merge tradition with technology, as the Akron Symphony Orchestra collaborates with Akron’s EarthQuaker Devices to add electronic effects to musicians’ acoustic instruments.
