* Provides outreach to young artists through the donation-sponsored Claremont Youth Symphony Orchestra
* Operates a traveling Musical Instrument Petting Zoo
* Operates a Mobile Music Conservatory, providing presentations to the public about music
* Operates our Music Man project, which enables the CSO to provide donated instruments to school districts in need
The CSO would not exist without your continued support. Donations provide funds for music rentals, soloists' honoraria, insurance, printing expenses, orchestral management, and support for our outreach programs.

The James and Delphine Fahringer Fund
The James and Delphine Fahringer Fund was established in honor of two members of the Claremont Symphony Orchestra Association for their tireless dedication to the Claremont Symphony Orchestra and the Claremont Youth Symphony Orchestra. The fund is designated for general use by the CSO and CYSO. For more than 50 years, James Fahringer served in several capacities: as violist, percussionist, Assistant Conductor, and Music Director of the CSO (for more than 30 years), and Co-Conductor of the CYSO (for more than 20 years) until his passing in 2013. His wife Delphine Fahringer also contributed to the orchestra for nearly 50 years: as soprano soloist, percussionist, and, most notably, as Manager of the CYSO for 20 years, until her passing in 2008.
