Westchester Philharmonic Charity Profile
The Westchester Philharmonic was created by Paul Lustig Dunkel and a group of area citizens and business leaders who recognized that some of the world’s best classical musicians, who played nightly in such New York City venues as Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center, were playing only minutes away from Westchester County.
Established as the New Orchestra of Westchester in 1983 and, a few years later, re-christened the Westchester Philharmonic, the orchestra was created to enhance the quality of life in the community and provide educational opportunities for local schoolchildren. The founders of the orchestra didn’t simply create a first-class local symphony orchestra. They founded a fully professional orchestra that in its first 21 seasons would grow to become one of the most influential cultural institutions in the region?with a broad reach well beyond its immediate geography.
