The Irving Symphony offers a special program called “OVATION” for students between grades 9-12 who would like to volunteer. At each concert, Ovation members help the Symphony with patron relations by distributing concert programs; collecting tickets; greeting and showing patrons their seats.

We’re delighted to provide them recognition in our program as well as participation in lectures and demonstrations with orchestra musicians, free attendance at concerts and additional complimentary tickets for family or friends. The students receive community service hours from the ISO that are required for their graduation as honor students. What more enjoyable way to obtain community service than listening to orchestra music?!
