The
Piedmont Symphony Orchestra embraces technology to
fulfill its mission and to reach a greater audience.
Among the many ways orchestras use technology today,
the PSO has pioneered many "firsts" in its
use of new measures to enhance the concert experience,
communicate with patrons, and look to the future.

In
2008, the PSO became among the first orchestras to develop
a fully functional website designed specifically for
smart mobile devices. PSO 4 Mobile offers all of the features of its regular website,
in addition to features for social networking and navigation
based on a user's location. |
To
access PSO 4 Mobile, enter www.piedmontsymphony.org/mobile.html from your phone's mobile browser |

Also
in 2008, the PSO partnered with SCANLIFE to become the first orchestra worldwide to implement
2D barcodes into its printed materials. Its purpose
is to allow visually impaired concertgoers access to
pre-recorded commentary on works being performed at
its concerts, and information about the season. Additional
features include sending text and email reminders of
upcoming calendar events directly to patrons. |
