The Dubuque Symphony Orchestra is a non-union, fully professional ensemble based in Dubuque, Iowa. It serves Dubuque and the tri-state area of Iowa, Illinois, and Wisconsin with a varied program that includes classical, chamber, opera, pops, and education concerts. Historically led by Music Director William Intriligator, the organization announced in 2024 that Nash Ryder would serve as Music Director and Conductor. The group comprises about 60 professional musicians and performs roughly 12 distinct concert programs annually, totaling around 25 performances. The orchestra operates as a small to mid-sized performing arts organization and maintains a website at dubuquesymphony.org. In March 2025, the DSO announced a partnership with Balletdubuque to present a fully staged production at the Heritage Center.
