Soothing Spartanburg: A Philharmonic Playlist

Inspiring our community through classical music has long been at the core of what we do at the Spartanburg Philharmonic.  And while live concert experiences are currently paused, we continue to look for new ways to bring the light and joy of music to each of member of our Philharmonic family.  On the recommendation of some of our most avid concert-goers, we have started a playlist of soothing classical pieces for you to enjoy when the stresses of the world begin to weigh you down.  

Started by Music Director Stefan Sanders, we will continue to add recommendations by SPhill staff, musicians, and friends. We hope you return as often as you like, and most of all we hope you enjoy!
