Founded in 1918, the Cleveland Orchestra has grown into one of the world's finest, as music critics in mainstream media, such as the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, have declared. After concluding the 2017-18 centennial season of concerts, the Orchestra will embark on a tour to China in 2019 marking the beginning of its Second Century, 21 years after its last visit to the Asian country.
