It kept the limestone, the tension trusses, the tin ceilings and built a future underneath them.

St. Louis Symphony Orchestra Reports Budget Surplus, Large Percentage of Music by Living Composers

In Friday’s (11/6) Musical America, Sarah Shay writes, “The St. Louis Symphony Orchestra (SLSO) launched the 2025-26 season, its 146th, with the reopening of the Jack C. Taylor Music Center and its renovated Powell Hall. In the months following, more than one million people experienced the orchestra via 250+ concerts, free events, education and community programs, digital initiatives, and media broadcasts. The SLSO ended its fiscal year with a $274,000 operating surplus on revenue of $38.716 million and expenses of $38.442 million; a record-setting $11.3 million in contributed revenue; the conclusion of the Music for All Campaign that exceeded its goal of $155 million goal by $20 million; and an endowment of almost $315 million, a figure 14.8 percent larger than the previous year. The artistic offerings under Music Director Stéphane Denève and a roster of podium guests consistently met high musical standards beginning with the opening concert—world premieres of ‘House of Tomorrow,’ by SLSO Composer in Residence Kevin Puts, with mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato as soloist, and James Lee III’s choral work ‘Fanfare for Universal Hope.’ The music of today was a frequent presence; 40 percent of pieces on classical programs were by living composers including world premieres.”
