The Magnolia Chamber Orchestra seeks to explore and disseminate the expressive tools and rhetorical power of historical performance practice, drawing from the vast repertoire of the Baroque to our present day. The conviction of our philosophy serves as a social tool that aims to inspire the youth, evoking creativity in them and igniting a genuine interest for the arts through community outreach.    

The Magnolia Chamber Orchestra collaborates with other significant local artistic institutions, presenting the community with thoughtful and imaginative combinations of music with live painting, dance, and literature. Playing in the MCO is an enriching experience for its members thanks to the cultural diversity of the group, where similar and different ideas are shared and embraced, and long-lasting relationships are born.

The Magnolia Chamber Orchestra is Orchestra-in-residence at the St. Peter's by the sea Episcopal Church in Gulfport, Mississippi.
