Boston Symphony Orchestra

BSO web site

BSO College Cards for 2008-09 are now available for pick up at the BSO Box Office (301 Massachusetts Ave., Boston). This program is paid for by the MIT Council for the Arts; MIT students do not have to pay for their BSO College Card. Click here for list of the concerts and rehearsals that are available to holders of the College Cards, as well as the rules of the program. The College Card Program concerts begin on Oct. 2.

The Boston Symphony Orchestra (BSO) is one of the leading orchestras in the United States, performing in Boston's Symphony Hall, one of the world's finest concert halls. James Levine assumed leadership of the orchestra during the 2004-2005 season.

The Council for the Arts at MIT offers MIT students the opportunity to attend up to 20 BSO performances during the season for no charge with the BSO College Card. MIT students only need to show their MIT Student IDs at the BSO Box Office (301 Massachusetts Ave., Boston) to pick up a BSO College Card.

Each BSO College Card offers a seat to up to 20 concerts and open rehearsals during the upcoming BSO season. For the schedule of performances that (might) be included, click here.

Beginning at 9:30 a.m. on the day of each concert offered through the card, student cardholders will be able to call a special designated phone line listed on the card (617/638-9478) to confirm that tickets are available for that day's concert. Tickets will be available for pickup—one per cardholder, student ID required—at the Symphony Hall Box Office from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. on concert days. Tickets are available on a first-come first-served basis, but a minimum of 100 tickets will be held for each BSO College Card concert.

Only one card per MIT student ID will be issued.

Lost or stolen cards cannot be replaced.

All programs and artists are subject to change. See the BSO web site for up-to-date information.
