On October 22, 2022, the SSO will celebrate the start of our 78th season of beautiful music in downtown Springfield MA! We are the largest professional orchestra in Massachusetts outside of Boston. During the upcoming season, we will perform 8 professional concerts at Springfield Symphony Hall (six Classical concerts, two Pops concerts), Youth Orchestra concerts, and a multitude of musical and educational initiatives throughout the greater Pioneer Valley. We are proud to call Springfield, MA, our home, and are a vested, engaged partner in the expansion and revitalization of our city, as a regional cultural & economic hub. Join us in celebrating the arts in downtown Springfield! The established mission of the SSO is to maintain and develop a professional symphony orchestra that produces musical performances of high artistic quality; to entertain and educate our audiences; to expand and develop our audiences; and to sponsor related programs and concerts that enhance the musical life of the region we serve.
