The Ocmulgee Symphony Orchestra is a musical surprise that is clearly becoming a long-term cultural asset to central Georgia.  Established in 2007, it set out to provide live performances of great music “wherever the Ocmulgee River flows” – and that’s a wide swath across the state.  Its primary base is the historic Opera House in Hawkinsville, but its outlook is unlimited.

            The OSO is one of the few privately operated professional orchestras in the world.  It was founded by Dr. Charles Quinn, director of instrumental music at Middle Georgia College in Cochran.

            A new, ambitious season is being finalized.  This musical surprise continues, expanding to reach both loyal and new audiences.
