Many Thanks to Our Generous Sponsors

We want to take this opportunity to thank our business sponsors and individual supporters for their generosity. Without their belief in our vision, the orchestra would not be the fine performing group it is today.


First Chair Sponsors

First Chair Sponsors are businesses and individuals who support the symphony in a special way by contributing $1,000 on behalf of musicians who occupy the "first chair" in a section of the orchestra. These principal players have unique responsibilities in leading their section and contributing to the overall quality and beauty of performance. KMS is espceially grateful to our 2007-08 First Chair Sponsors for their generosity and leadership in support of the orchestra.
