Bryan Symphony Orchestra

The Bryan Symphony Orchestra (BSO) is a regional orchestra located on the campus of Tennessee Technological University (TTU) in Cookeville, Tennessee. Begun in 1962, it has brought both classical and pops music to the Upper Cumberland region. It draws professional musicians from all over Middle and Eastern Tennessee and is a fine example of cooperation between the community and the university. The heart of the BSO consists of TTU music faculty, and the orchestra takes great pride in the select inclusion of outstanding student players who perform alongside their teachers and mentors.
