About the TSO...
The Tulsa Symphony Orchestra employs professional
musicians with the focused, collective, and ongoing
aim of presenting all kinds of music of the highest
quality. The TSO functions throughout the year, and
is comprised of self-governing “executive
musicians”—individuals who perform masterful music
and execute the many decisions involved in
sustaining a major orchestra. With a variety of
performances and concerts, in-school events,
community-engagement programs, classroom lessons,
collaborative master classes, and other such
appearances, the TSO intends to invigorate and
broaden arts education all across the City of Tulsa
and, further, the State of Oklahoma. Rebuilding and
strengthening the musical arts infrastructure of
this city and its environs will remain a key concern
and core value of the Tulsa Symphony Orchestra.
