The LONG ISLAND SENIOR POPS ORCHESTRA
Stephen Michael Smith, Music Director
THE HISTORIC PROFILE of the SENIOR POPS
Over 30 years of making beautiful music! 
The Senior Pops Orchestra of Long Island was established on September 12, 1979 when two local musicians formed and funded the group as a vehicle for senior citizen musicians to express their lifelong musical creativity, bringing entertainment and culture to an appreciative Long Island community.
Today, we retain our well-known "Senior Pops" name, but attract a much wider age range of musicians. But we continue to bring the same musical enjoyment to a faithful and growing audience.
Since its inception, our 60-member ensemble has always performed numerous free concerts annually, and has distinguished itself as a serious contributor to Long Island's thriving cultural scene.
