"...We congratulate the organization on its creative programming, fine playing, and immediately evident commitment and dedication, and wish it much continued success." Review of Feb 8, 2009 concert from the Classical Voice of New England

"...a suburban orchestra like the Lexington Symphony is capable of a performance to attract the attention of those who live closer to Symphony Hall. Even if the BSO season were in full swing, last Saturday’s program would have been worth the trip." Review of Sept 13, 2008 concert in the Boston Phoenix

"We thoroughly enjoyed the entire concert and...were extremely impressed with the quality of performance..."

--Lexington Symphony patron

"The orchestra was brilliant. Jonathan conducts with a passion that envelops the audience...We in the audience were dazzled! What a program, what an evening. Thanks to you all.

--Lexington Symphony patron
