Alabama Symphony Orchestra
The Alabama Symphony Orchestra is a full-time orchestra, passionately pushing the boundaries of music through concert, education, and creativity. The ASO began with the first performance by a group of volunteer musicians in 1921. That group would evolve from a volunteer ensemble to become the state’s only full-time professional orchestra.
