Additionally, the Symphony performs a free annual education concert for area fourth graders at the Cathedral and provides free tickets, underwritten by local foundations, for children and students to attend the evening performances you all love. Please consider supporting the Pittsburgh Symphony and our concert series at Scottish Rite Cathedral by making an Annual Fund gift with your season ticket purchase.
