Symphony and Orchestra Sites
The following are the homepages of some of the great symphonies and orchestras. Please give me feedback with more URLs, I hope to eventually have a listing of all of the major symphonies and orchestras in at least the United States.
- The Minnesota Orchestra
- The Minnesota Orchestra is a full-sized symphonic orchestra, founded in 1903. Some of its more recent productions include Mahler's 3rd symphony, Beethoven's 9th symphony, and Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 4. The productions are superb, and rival that of any by the east coast philharmonics. Their home is Orchestra Hall (kinda self-explanatory, I think).
- Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra
- The Twin Cities are one of two major cities (yes, I am counting Minneapolis and St. Paul as one city here) in the United States to be home to both a full-sized symphonic orchestra as well as a chamber orchestra. The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra is made up of 33 virtuosos, which one can tell immediately upon hearing them play. They are definately the cream of the crop of Minnesota's musicians. They play at several different locations in the Twin Cities.
