About
The Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra is among the finest orchestras in the nation and the largest cultural organization in Wisconsin. Since its inception in 1959, the MSO has received critical acclaim for artistic excellence. In addition to making a $44.3 million economic impact in the Milwaukee metropolitan area and infusing $90 million into West Wisconsin Avenue as we restore the Warner Grand Theater, the 70 full-time professional musicians in the symphony perform more than 135 concerts each season for over 200,000 patrons.
