The Kenwood Orchestra

Founded in 1972, the Kenwood Symphony Orchestra has grown immensely in membership, ability, and reputation. Dr. Jeffrey Stirling is the orchestra's current Music Director.

Based at Ramsey International Fine Arts Center in Minneapolis, the KSO represents over 50 highly accomplished volunteer musicians of various ages and occupations, and all passionate about playing and sharing great music. The orchestra plays more than a dozen performances each year around the Twin Cities and sponsors an annual Masters Concerto and Aria competition. The orchestra also works in collaboration with Learning Through Music (LTM) to promote music in the overall school curriculum.
