Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra - Home
Description
The Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra (MSO) is Minnesota's most highly regarded civic orchestral ensemble. MSO concerts have been broadcast on Minnesota Public Radio and featured on public television. The Star Tribune has described the Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra as “the very model of a modern major orchestra - community style.”
The mission of the MSO is to perform outstanding symphony concerts for diverse audiences throughout the Twin Cities metropolitan area. Our core values are: to invite new and diverse audiences to share the power and energy of live symphony concerts in convenient neighborhood venues; to perform the full spectrum of symphonic music and encourage artistic growth in our volunteer players; and to work with host organizations to present and promote symphonic performances in their communities.
Previous Commissions and Premieres
The Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra has presented many world and regional premieres of works by living composers. The orchestra, as well as its Music Director and its Board of Directors, is committed to the cause of playing and promoting new music. For instance, the 1998 - 1999 MSO season of six concerts included three world premieres and three regional premieres: a new work on virtually every program.
