Garrett Lakes Arts Festival is proud to announce the return of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra to Deep Creek Lake. 2011 marks the fifth summer hosting the PSO! Many thanks to The Wisp Resort for its superb accommodations for the musicians as well as the performance venue.

The Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra has been a vital part of the City of Pittsburgh's heritage for more than 100 years. With its noble history of the finest conductors and musicians and its strong commitment to artistic quality and excellence, audiences around the world have claimed the PSO as their orchestra of choice. Beginning in the early 1900s with frequent performances in Canada, the PSO confirmed its ranking as a world-class orchestra, earning critical acclaim for each tour abroad. Its 29 international tours include 15 European tours, seven trips to the Far East and two to South America. In January 2004, the PSO became the first American orchestra to perform for Pope John Paul II at the Vatican, as part of the Pontiff's Silver Jubilee celebration.

Lawrence Loh was promoted to Resident Conductor of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra starting in the 2007-2008 season. He is one of the most exciting young talents on the classical music scene today.
