Baltimore Symphony Orchestra to play free concert series to expand reach amid financial struggles.

'Looking to expand its audience to all corners of Baltimore City as it strives to find its financial footing, the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra announced it will host four concerts honoring composer Ludwig van Beethoven at venues throughout the city in 2020.

According to a news release, the orchestra will perform at four locations from January through May, including at Morgan State University and Patterson Park.

Peter Kjome, the BSO’s president and CEO, said the series is part of a larger effort to expand the orchestra’s audience by reaching out directly to communities “who might not otherwise know about the BSO."

“Part of the work that’s going on right now is to envision and enable a successful and long-term path for the BSO,” he added.'>>>
