The South Florida Symphony Orchestra (SFSO), founded by Maestra Sebrina María Alfonso in 1997, has developed into a superlative cultural institution serving all of South Florida, ranging from Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade, to Monroe County. 

Guided by the belief that music is pivotal to community engagement, the SFSO brings vibrancy, innovation, and strengthens public commitment to the arts.  

Recent milestones include recognition in Broward County as ‘Major Cultural Institution,’ one of only a handful of organizations to be so honored. In another landmark, the Symphony has been recognized as “Special Presentations Partner” with the Broward Center for the Performing Arts. Achieving this status is an honor that is rarely bestowed upon an organization. The benefit is that the Broward Center now co-produces concerts with the Symphony and leverages their marketing partners for Symphony co-productions.

The South Florida Symphony Orchestra is a pioneer in its commitment to symphonic music for underserved communities. The Symphony in the Schools program, begun in 1997, facilitates engagement with the arts for culturally underserved students and their families. The Symphony has touched the lives of over 50,000 students since its inception.

SFSO partnerships are evolving the classical music artform and attracting new audiences. Achievements including Martha Graham’s Dance of Life, Hemingway Meets Mozart and Suidy Flamenco, and Gershwin’s ‘Porgy and Bess’ in January 2019 are examples of the energy and artistry of the partnerships.

The groundbreaking 2018 / 2019 Season reaffirms the SFSO dedication to providing an enriching cultural experience to the residents and visitors throughout South Florida through the Performing Arts and Music Education.
