The Denver Pops Orchestra, also known as the Mostly Strauss Orchestra, is a community-based nonprofit organization that has been serving up great music in metro Denver for over 30 years. The 55+ members who volunteer their time and talents represent a variety of ages and vocations.
The ensemble aims to serve Denver area communities through performances of familiar music, including a wide range of music from light classical and symphonic to operatic movements, Broadway and movie tunes to dance band and pops compositions. Denver Pops performs regularly from September through May, offering a variety of concerts, formal dances, benefits, and special events.
To support concert related expenses, the orchestra relies on donations from our audience, the SCFD (Scientific and Cultural Facilities District), and profits from performing at special events. Thank you to all who have donated to the orchestra!
The first concert of the season is continuing our tradition to feature music that will engage your imagination. This is the time of year to let your inner child out so we hope our program will remind you of your childhood with all its sense of wonder and excitement. Music will include Grieg’s Peer Gynt Suite No. 1, Franz von Suppé’s Poet and Peasant Overture and a surprise or two along the way.
