About

The mission of the Austin Symphony Orchestra Society, Inc. is to enhance the cultural quality of life for the adults and young people of Austin and Central Texas by providing excellence in music performance and educational programming.

Founded in 1911, the Austin Symphony Orchestra is Austin’s oldest performing arts group. The ASO offers a complete season of musical and educational programming. Classical concerts include a series of eight concert pairs running monthly September through May in the new state-of-the-art Joe R. & Teresa Lozano Long Center for the Performing Arts. Our season also features the Sarah & Ernest Butler Pops Series: Fall & Winter Pops at the Long Center and Holiday & Promenade Pops at Palmer Events Center. Programming for the entire family includes the Halloween Children’s Concert, Christmas Sing-Along and the Family Concert, as well as the popular James C. Armstrong Youth Educations Programs, which include Children’s Day Art Park, Young People’s Concerts, AT&T High School Concerts and a variety of other school programs.

Symphony Square at 11th and Red River is home to the ASO’s administrative offices. This complex of four historic Austin buildings is also home to a popular restaurant, Cafe Serranos, and the headquarters of the Women’s Symphony League of Austin.
