About Symphony San Jose
Symphony San Jose’s unique artistic identity has enabled it to become one of Silicon Valley’s premier cultural institutions. The Symphony’s innovative business model utilizes a roster of distinguished guest conductors in lieu of a resident music director. With an annual operating budget of $4 million, the Symphony offers a main stage subscription series, films with live orchestral accompaniment, education and community concerts, and a variety of special programming. It is a resident company of San Jose’s magnificently restored California Theatre, with additional performances given at the Center for Performing Arts and other Bay Area venues.
Symphony San Jose operates under a collective bargaining agreement with AFM Local 6. During the 2026/27 season the Symphony will present 75 orchestral services and offer a base per service rate of $190.00.
