About Cheshire Symphony Orchestra
Formed in 1987, the Cheshire Symphony Orchestra (CSO) is a civic orchestra comprised
of about 50 dedicated, volunteer musicians drawn from many central Connecticut communities. Musicians range in age from high school students to retirees. Despite our varying backgrounds, we all share a passion for playing classical and pops music at our personal and collective best. From September through May, we rehearse on Monday evenings from 7:15-9:15 at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church, Cheshire, CT and perform four concerts each year at the same location.
