Introducing SCSO Artistic Director and Principal Conductor
Kornel Thomas
“My vision for the orchestra is one of growth—artistically, in the size and strength of our musician community, in the reach and engagement of our audience, and in building a broader connection to the community. Above all, I want us to create unforgettable musical experiences that resonate deeply with all who encounter our work.”
“This organization is funded, in part, by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Central MN Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.”
The mission of the St. Cloud Symphony Orchestra is to present high-quality performances of music and educational outreach activities to Central Minnesota, encourage participation by local and area musicians, and further the understanding and appreciation of music.
The high-quality performances and educational outreach at St. Cloud Symphony Orchestra are made possible by contributions from supporters of the arts, and individuals like you. Consider supporting our musicians and the future of our non-profit.
St. Cloud Symphony Orchestra partners with St. Cloud State University and all performances are held at the beautiful Ritsche Auditorium in Stewart Hall. Not sure where to park, how to find the hall, or where to go for dessert after? We’ve got you covered!
