The Cape Town Symphony Orchestra (CTSO) (formerly the Cape Town Municipal Orchestra) was an orchestra in Cape Town (1969-1997).

History

In an effort to revitalize the orchestra, the Cape Town Municipal Orchestra changed its name to the Cape Town Symphony Orchestra (CTSO) in 1969.

In 1986, the CTSO was privatized as a Section 21 Company.

The Cape Philharmonic Orchestra (formerly the CAPAB Orchestra) merged with the Cape Town Symphony Orchestra (CTSO) in 1997, becoming the Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra (CTPO).
