About West Texas Symphony

The mission of the West Texas Symphony is to enhance the quality of life in West Texas through professional music performances and music education. Led by Music Director Gary Lewis, the orchestra rehearses and performs in the acclaimed Wagner Noël Performing Arts Center. Since opening in 2011, this 1800-seat concert hall has gained national recognition for its acoustics and grandeur. Each season features a minimum of four Masterworks programs, three Pops & Family programs, and an annual production of The Nutcracker in collaboration with the Midland Festival Ballet. Beyond the core series, our season also includes music education concerts and other performances alongside community partners.
