About Symphony Number One
SYMPHONY NUMBER ONE is Baltimore's newest chamber orchestra, performing substantial works by emerging composers, alongside riveting masterworks, beloved classics, and a twist of pop. SYMPHONY NUMBER ONE brings together great composers of the past, virtuoso performers of the present, and the leading compositional voices of the future, creating electrifying concert experiences for all of Baltimore.
SYMPHONY NUMBER ONE has been named a FINALIST for The American Prize in Orchestral Performance. Praised for presenting "full-length freshness on each program" by the Baltimore Sun, the orchestra was founded in 2015 by Jordan Randall Smith, Nicholas Bentz, and Sean Meyers. SYMPHONY NUMBER ONE has premiered new works of over three dozen composers, released four "must get" albums (available for purchase or download on Amazon & iTunes), and performed at Baltimore's inaugural Light City Festival. The orchestra was also highlighted in Baltimore STYLE as "brazen...like an indie rock band", featured twice on the acclaimed television show MPT Artworks, granted the "Category Buster" award by Baltimore Magazine for their Best of Baltimore 2016, and chosen as runner up for Baltimore's Best Band the 2016 Best of Baltimore Reader's Poll.
SYMPHONY NUMBER ONE develops close working relationships with young and emerging composers, gives new works multiple hearings, produces substantial recordings, and creates unique concert experiences for the public by juxtaposing new music with the classical canon.
