The Sydney University Symphony Orchestra (SUSO) is the premier orchestra on the main campus of the University of Sydney. Sydney University Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1948 by Donald Peart and was originally known as the Pro Musica Orchestra. It is currently made up of around 80 musicians from all faculties across the university. The orchestra's home venue is the Great Hall in the University's sandstone Quadrangle. The orchestra is currently conducted by Luke Spicer. SUSO is part of the University of Sydney Union's Clubs & Societies program and is run by a committee of nine students. It receives funding from the University of Sydney Union as well as donations from the public. ==Previous Concerts== In 2006, SUSO performed with the Sydney University Musical Society for Ben Macpherson's farewell concert. It featured Mendelssohn's ''Elijah'' and was broadcast on 2MBS. In 2009, SUSO again collaborated with the choir to perform Carl Orff's ''Carmina Burana''. In 2011, SUSO provided orchestral accompaniment to The Church for the band's thirtieth anniversary concert, "A Psychedelic Symphony", at the Sydney Opera House.
