Our Mission:
Inspiring and building a strong community through music.
Guided by Music Director Rossen Milanov, Columbus Symphony musicians, conductors, chorus, and renowned guest artists bring extraordinary talent, passion, and the highest standards of musicianship to enrich the community. The Columbus Symphony’s innovative programming spans Masterworks, Pops, Nationwide Picnic with the Pops, Education, and Community Engagement, reaching diverse audiences across central Ohio. We play an integral role in Columbus’ vibrant art scene, serving over 159,000 central Ohioans, with 2.3 million reached, and impacting over 65,000 children, families, and teachers each year.
A tradition since the first season in 1951-52.
