Celebrate Live Music in Corning

WELCOME! Civic Music presents an eclectic mix of musical performances ranging from classical and jazz to gospel, swing, and rock in an affordable six-concert fall-to-spring series.

Civic Music is the community's oldest continuing cultural organization and is run solely by volunteers. For over 90 years we deliver musical performances that touch and inspire you

Whether jazz, classical or beyond, at Civic Music concerts you’ll experience the top talent of today and the rising stars of tomorrow. Musical acts ranging from jazz greats Sonny Rollins, Arturo Sandoval and David Grisman to stars on the rise, such as vocalist and trumpeter Bria Skonberg and vocalist Sasha Masakowski, have performed for Civic Music audiences. Classical performers that have graced the Civic Music stage include the Irish Chamber Orchestra, The Turtle Island String Quartet and the Harlem Quartet. Bela Fleck and Abigail Washburn, Booker T. Washington, and Blind Boys of Alabama are just some of the wide variety of performers who have created special evenings for our subscribers.
