Experience Columbus Symphony Orchestra

The Columbus Symphony Orchestra (CSO), founded in 1950, is Ohio’s only fully professional orchestra. Rooted in a tradition of accessible and innovative programming, the CSO performs over 100 concerts annually, reaching more than 250,000 people through its diverse season. Currently led by Music Director Rossen Milanov since 2010, the orchestra has significantly expanded its repertoire to include contemporary works alongside classical standards.

The CSO is renowned for its commitment to education and community engagement, offering programs like the “Musical Adventures” series for young audiences and collaborative initiatives with local arts organizations. Notable accomplishments include critically acclaimed performances at Carnegie Hall (2018) and consistent high ratings for its nationally syndicated radio broadcasts.

Beyond traditional orchestral concerts, the CSO actively commissions new works and frequently collaborates with prominent guest artists spanning genres from classical to pop. It maintains a strong recording presence, with albums available on Naxos Records. The orchestra's home is the Ohio Theatre, a beautifully restored historic venue contributing to a vibrant cultural landscape in Columbus.
