CSOL Members Meet The Musicians
Organized for the primary purpose of giving orchestra fans opportunities to meet music professionals, the CSOL provides several social and educational opportunities during the season. League membership is open to all Chautauquans whether visiting for one week or for the whole season. Being a member allows access to post-concert receptions at the Athenaeum and the annual family CSO/CSOL picnic. These gatherings provide opportunities for interaction between the musicians and their fans. Lifelong friendships have evolved through these engagements. A robust membership in the CSOL also sends a message to the funders of the Institution that the orchestra holds a special place in the hearts and lives of so many Chautatuquans.
