The Midcoast Symphony Orchestra performs four concerts each season at both the Orion Performing Arts Center, Topsham, and the Franco Center in Lewiston.

The Midcoast Symphony Orchestra is a community orchestra founded in 1990.

A community-based organization, the orchestra draws players and audiences from south of Portland to Rockland along the coast, and inland from Augusta to the Lewiston-Auburn area. Its members all volunteer their time to practice and perform. Under the guidance of Music Director Rohan Smith, the orchestra continues to attract ever more professional-caliber musicians and award-winning guest artists.
