Boston Symphony Orchestra

Overview

The Boston Symphony Orchestra (BSO) is a prestigious American symphony orchestra based in Boston, founded in 1881 by Henry Lee Higginson. It is the second-oldest orchestra in the United States and is recognized as one of the "Big Five" major American symphony orchestras. Dedicated to delivering high-quality concerts inspired by European traditions, the BSO has a rich history of performances, including its inaugural concert at the Boston Music Hall.

The orchestra's primary venue is Symphony Hall, renowned for its exceptional acoustics and regular season of orchestral concerts featuring a wide range of classical repertoire. During the summer, the BSO performs at Tanglewood, which also serves as a training ground for young musicians through the Tanglewood Music Center. The organization is deeply committed to outreach and education, with programs that extend musical access to diverse audiences. Under the direction of Andris Nelsons, the BSO engages millions through live performances, recordings, and various media platforms.
