Miami’s preeminent professional orchestra, the MISO became the first U.S. symphony founded by a Latin American conductor when Manuel Ochoa started it in 1989. Since 2006 it has been led by the internationally accomplished, Venezuelan-born conductor Eduardo Marturet.

The orchestra’s Young Artists Program, along with its multiple endeavors through its collaborative Strategic Alliances program, help to ensure the growth and sustainability of the MISO as a vital contributor to the arts in the Miami-Dade area. In that vein, of particular note are its institutional initiatives, including the Allapattah Children and Youth Symphony program, a musical education outreach for underprivileged children based on Venezuela’s hugely successful government-funded “El Sistema,” and the Assistant Conductor Apprenticeship Program, a partnership with the Frost School of Music at the University of Miami.
