The Gwangju Symphony Orchestra (GSO) has played a pivotal role in continuing the legacy of Gwangju as a “city of art and culture,” a title Gwangju has enjoyed since old times when, through art and learning, it achieved a consummation of the so-called “culture of the southern provinces.” Since the orchestra’s founding in 1976, it has contributed to the development of the region’s art and culture and strived to enrich the cultural lives of the citizens. Moving along, the GSO will continue to be at the forefront of the rebirth of the “city of art and culture” as a “cultural center of Asia.”
The Gwangju Symphony Orchestra began by the initiation of the citizens. Musicians in the Gwangju area voluntarily formed a private orchestra in 1969 called “Gwangju Civic Symphony” and began showcasing symphonic repertoires. The then conductor, Sin-deok Jang and the members of the orchestra were determined to make the art of classical music take root in Gwangju. Their conviction saw fruit seven years later when the civic symphony grew into the GSO in July 1976.
