As the flagship performing arts organization of Stark County, the Canton Symphony Orchestra is one of the most highly respected small-budget symphony orchestras in the U.S.

The orchestra performs both standard and contemporary repertoire, and annually begins its classical series with a work by an American composer. It also commissions new music while also showcasing established guest soloists as well as new young talent.   

Under the musical leadership of nationally renowned conductor Gerhardt Zimmermann - now in his 28th year as Music Director - the Canton Symphony Orchestra is ranked by the region's leading musicians as second only to the Cleveland Orchestra in this part of the state.
