Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, Edo de Waart, Music Director
The Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra (MSO), under the dynamic leadership of Music Director Edo de Waart, has embarked upon a new era of artistic excellence and critical acclaim. In his fourth year with the MSO, Maestro de Waart has led sold-out concerts, elicited rave reviews and conducted a performance at Carnegie Hall in the Spring for Music festival. Since its inception in 1959, the MSO has become one of the finest orchestras in the nation. The MSO's 83 full-time professional musicians perform more than 130 classics, pops, family and education concerts each season in venues throughout the state and outside Wisconsin. A cornerstone of Milwaukee's arts community, the MSO provides enrichment and educational activities for audiences of every age, economic status and background. Part of our Classical Series.
