Dearest Music-Loving Reader,

It has come to this author’s most delighted attention that the social engagement of the season is soon upon us…

The Diamond Regency Ball Fundraiser
September 6, 2025
Presented by the Southwest Michigan Symphony Orchestra

A most elegant affair is to be hosted in celebration of the Symphony’s Diamond Anniversary—a glittering 75 years of music, community, and passion. On this most anticipated evening, all eyes shall turn to the presentation of this season’s debutantes, culminating in the crowning of the Diamond of the Season, who shall open the floor in a breathtaking waltz with none other than Sir Matthew Aubin, our esteemed conductor and bachelor of the baton.

Whispers of romance will mingle with melodies as guests enjoy live symphonic serenades, high-spirited bidding during our grand auction, and the chance to mingle with Southwest Michigan’s finest—and perhaps uncover a secret or two.

Guests are most heartily encouraged to arrive in Regency-era attire, though modern interpretations worthy of the ton are equally welcome.

Debutante & VIP Invitations become available May 21.
General Admission opens July 3.

But be swift—only the most poised and punctual shall secure a place!
