Encore Society

Create a lasting legacy of orchestral music in our community by including the Albany Symphony in your estate plans. Gifts of all sizes make it possible for the Albany Symphony to maintain our tradition of artistic excellence, innovation, and community engagement for generations to come.

There are many options to make a planned gift, creating a legacy of music:

  • Charitable bequests

  • IRA or 401(k) beneficiary designation

  • Gifts of life insurance or appreciated stocks

  • A bequest in a will or living trust
