As 2025 draws to a close, São Paulo’s cultural agenda is already starting to prepare for next year. One example is that the São Paulo State Symphony Orchestra, better known as Osesp, has just unveiled its 2026 Season!
The long-awaited program will bring together big names in Brazilian and international music at the Sala São Paulo and the Estação Motiva Cultural; for example, conductors, world-class soloists and resident artists.
There will be more than 100 performances in 2026, including symphonic programs, choirs, recitals and other special projects. The repertoire will include works by Beethoven, Bach, Mendelssohn, Mahler, Villa-Lobos and Stockhausen, as well as world and Brazilian premieres by contemporary composers.
