The Hazleton Philharmonic Society, founded by Rev. Joseph Ferrara, is a beloved organization in Hazleton, PA that aims to provide music education and opportunities for area youngsters. Starting with a simple instrument akin to the flutophone, Father Joe laid the foundations of music theory, notation, and scales, eventually leading to the establishment of the Hazleton Philharmonic Orchestra and Hazleton Philharmonic Chorus. The society's dedication to fostering musical talent has also resulted in the opening of the Ferrwood Music Camp in 1967.
With a rich history and a commitment to nurturing young musicians, the Hazleton Philharmonic Society continues to thrive, offering orchestra rehearsals and a variety of events for music enthusiasts. Their mission, inspired by Father Joe's ambition and good will, has made a lasting impact on the community and continues to be a source of inspiration for aspiring musicians.
