Music Without Borders Starts With You
You Make Music Without Borders Possible
Your gift helps establish a lasting U.S. presence for one of Mexico’s leading orchestras.
You are at the heart of Sinfónica de Minería, a leading Mexican orchestra that unites, inspires, and transforms lives. From composers like Pulitzer laureate John Adams and Mexico’s own Gabriela Ortiz, to concert hall-packing virtuosos like violinist Joshua Bell and pianist Gabriela Montero, to Grammy-winning conductor Carlos Miguel Prieto and an all-star roster of symphonic musicians, we bring together the best of the Americas with performances at home in Mexico City and on tour across the United States:
- In 2023, we ignited audiences across the U.S.
- In 2024, we became the first-ever Latin American orchestra invited to the Bravo! Vail Festival.
- In 2025, we returned to Vail by popular demand and attracted capacity crowds for each concert.
- And in 2026, we’ll embark on a coast-to-coast U.S. tour, sharing musical brilliance across borders.
Your support make this possible, for today’s audiences, and for generations to come.
