Statewide Events

In addition to the regular season of concerts, MSO travels around the state offering full orchestra concerts with classical, pops or a combination of literature and chamber music concerts (in smaller venues).

Our String Quartet, Woodwind Quintet, and Brass Quintet provide 100+ “informances” for students inside schools. These concerts are in addition to the MSO-produced Season.

Some statewide concerts made possible, in part, by the generosity of Trustmark*.
