Reviews
The Cincinnati Symphony and Pops Orchestra together have received a great deal of press, including a feature on past performances in Cincinnati.com:
- The evening was also notable because it was the first concert led by John Morris Russell in his new title as Cincinnati Pops conductor designate. Russell energetically announced, “There’s no place like home!” as he launched into “Home for the Holidays” with the Pops Orchestra, choruses and dancers, and was warmly applauded by the Music Hall audience. … – Janelle Gelfand, Cincinnati.com

About Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra
Founded in 1895, the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra—under the direction of Louis Langrée—has matured into one of the nation's melodic heavyweights. Not only was the ensemble the first American orchestra to tour the world, backed by the US Department of State, it also hit the road stateside, playing Carnegie Hall 47 times since 1917. With such an enormous history, it's no surprise that some of classical music's biggest names are associated with the institution. It has housed famous conductors such as Leopold Stokowski and Max Rudolf, and has premiered the works of Debussy, Mahler, Ravel, and Bartók. It's not only responsible for introducing Aaron Copland's A Lincoln Portrait to audiences, it also commissioned his Fanfare for the Common Man into existence. Attracting only the finest players from Ohio and around the world to its stable of musicians, the orchestra continues its second century as an ambassador of symphonic culture.
