Orlando Symphony Orchestra

Orlando Symphony Orchestra

Orlando Symphony Orchestra is a professional orchestra based in Orlando, Florida. It was founded in 1990 as "Central Florida Friends of Music". The group collaborates with many cultural and religious organizations. Orlando Symphony also provides large ensembles for corporate conventions in the area. Unlike the two other Orlando-area professional orchestras, the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra and the Bach Festival Society (in residence at Rollins College), the Orlando Symphony is an orchestra for hire and does not present a regularly scheduled concert series.
