About the Berklee Contemporary
Symphony Orchestra
Since its debut in 2008, the Berklee Contemporary Symphony Orchestra (BCSO) has set out on a course
to distinguish itself from other Boston-area orchestras. The ensemble has more than 100 members and
itis the first full symphonic group ever assembled at Berklee. Possessing a distinct Berklee twist, the
group specializes in programming contemporary works—particularly those by living composers-but
often juxtaposes them with pieces from the traditional symphonic repertoire. The BCSO is committed
to the art of orchestral playing that honors the past, present, and future. In addition to the great
compositions of the past, this orchestra's repertoire includes original compositions by Berklee faculty
and students, and contemporary music from around the globe and from burgeoning genres such as
film and video game scores.
