Knoxville Symphony Orchestra
The Gift of Music
The Knoxville Symphony Orchestra is truly thankful for your support, which has a major impact on our service to the East Tennessee region. The KSO is proud to be the oldest continuously performing orchestra in the Southeast and a vital component of the cultural tapestry that makes Knoxville such a special and distinctive place to live, work, and play. Along with creating excellent music and performing in traditional venues, more than 70% of the KSO's performances take place beyond the concert hall, making meaningful musical moments accessible to our entire community in school classrooms, libraries, hospitals, city parks, and churches, and more. Across all programming, the KSO reaches more than 100,000 children and adults each year. Since many of these concerts and programs are offered at low or no cost, your financial contribution is critical to support all that we do.
 

The Knoxville Symphony Orchestra's 2025-26 season is made possible in part by grants from The City of Knoxville, Knox County,  The Tennessee Arts Commission, and The Arts & Culture Alliance.
 
       
 
This project is being supported, in whole or in part, by federal award number SLFRP5534 awarded to the State of Tennessee by the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

We gratefully acknowledge the following gifts and pledges received, and also include commemorative gift listings In Memory of and In Honor of, members of our KSO Endowment Giving, and members of the Bertha Walburn Clark Society.
