Symphony Number One is Baltimore's newest chamber orchestra, dedicated to performing and promoting substantial works by emerging composers.
Led by Music Director Jordan Randall Smith, Symphony Number One brings together great composers of the past, virtuoso performers of the present, and the leading compositional voices of the future.
What I like the most about Symphony Number One is their dedication to bringing the works of emerging composers to life. Being involved with SNO means being a part of the creative process, allowing new music to reach out and positively influence the community
I couldn't be more excited to perform with some of my beloved SNO colleagues this Thursday at The Center Club! You'll hear a bit of Wanamaker, Ives, Gershwin, and a tease of Mahler's Song of the Earth from yours truly. Join us for a summer evening of hors d’oeuvres and musical flair at A Taste of Symphony Number One!
A letter from Principal Horn and Director of Development, Selena Maytum. "
Friends,
We have had a wonderful year of performing new music, gathering new audiences, and working with some amazing composers. One highlight for me was performing John Adams' Son of Chamber Symphony. That piece was one of the first "modern" compositions that I fell in love with as a horn player, and it was great to work with Jordan and the rest of our ensemble to bring it to life last May."
