Background and History

Based in Hinsdale IL, the Salt Creek Sinfonietta (SCS) was formed in 1996, giving its first concert in November of that year. The SCS is one of Chicagoland’s newest jewels and a premiere chamber orchestra. Garnering praise for several years by the Illinois Council of Orchestras, including the "2004 Chamber Orchestra of the Year" and award representation for 4 out of 5 years, its members are well seasoned musicians, sharing their gift of music. Many of the players sit in the principal seats of other area ensembles, making the group a kind of “All-Star Orchestra.”

Presenting a regular "all classics" concert season of 5 concerts in Hinsdale on Sunday afternoons at 3 pm - one every other month beginning in September - the Salt Creek Sinfonietta offers its community members and audience a high quality chamber orchestra: outstanding and affordable entertainment, with excellent acoustics, open seating, and plenty of free parking in the lovely, convenient, intimate chapel area of our present concert home Redeemer Lutheran Church in Hinsdale IL (139 E. 1st St). Additionally, the SCS often performs collaborative concerts with other area groups outside of its regular concert season.
