The THSO is celebrating our 100th season as the oldest professional symphony in Indiana! Join Dr. David Chapman, THSO Board President, for an exploration of the first 100 years of the Terre Haute Symphony Orchestra, from its visionary leaders and creative artists to its generous supporters and strategic partners. The path to becoming Indiana’s oldest orchestra was rarely easy, marked by resilience, reinvention, and community spirit. This remarkable story traces a century of growth for both the orchestra and the city it calls home.
