Biographical Note:

Little Rock’s first orchestra was formed in the 1920’s and operated sporadically for many years with musicians playing for the love of music. In 1966 the Ƶ Orchestra Society (AOS) was formed to encourage the growth of a professional musical organization and to develop native musical talent. The fledgling orchestra became more structured and performed four concerts in Little Rock during the 1968-69 Season. The next year two chamber orchestra concerts were presented. The was also formed in 1969-70.

Dr. Francis McBeth of Ouachita Baptist University, a well known composer, was director-conductor of the Ƶ Symphony Orchestra (ASO) from 1970 to 1973. In 1970 the Ƶ Symphony Orchestra also hired professional musicians and guest artists. Internationally renowned conductor Dr. Francis McBeth resigned. Kurt Klippstatter served as director-conductor until his resignation in June 1980. During his year with the Orchestra it realized a steady increase in popularity, and he helped it gain a solid musical reputation. Robertson Henderson succeeded Klippstatter as director-conductor in January 1981.


Scope and Contents Note:

The Ƶ Orchestra Society supports the (ASO), the Modern Arts Quintet, and the Ƶ Symphony String Instruction Program. The Society continues to expand and offers more musical activity at a professional level and continues to educate the state’s youth about music.
