It is the mission of the BPO to enhance the Boulder region's artistic and educational cultures through orchestral excellence, embracing diversity, and connecting people to music, music to ideas, and people to people.Vision StatementThe path to justice begins with empathy, with our ability, however imperfect, to imagine ourselves in the places of others, to fundamentally recognize our common humanity. Music is empathy in sound. To put our lives into musical tones and share them with others is a profound way to know and be known. Music seeks a shared vision to be better.
