Britt Festival Orchestra – Past Concerts

The Britt Festival Orchestra (BFO) brings a professional group of musicians together each summer to perform under the leadership of Music Director Teddy Abrams, an established leader and conductor in the symphonic world. Our orchestral summer festival spans 3 weeks from mid-June through early July and includes orchestral concerts, chamber music events, and curated performances for children, all at our extraordinary outdoor venue in the historic town of Jacksonville, Oregon.

Established in 1963, the BFO comes together each summer from world-class orchestras around the globe to perform a remarkably diverse selection of music under the stars, ranging from traditional classical to modern works. Our concert hall, the Britt Pavilion, is a natural outdoor amphitheater under the great Oregon sky where audiences can sit on the reserved bench seats or on the grassy Britt hill and enjoy the concerts.

Additional festivities include free BrittKids Koncerts, open rehearsals, pre-concert conversations with guest artists and orchestra members, and special projects and collaborations with a variety of community groups.
