The New Haven Symphony Orchestra is the fourth-oldest symphony orchestra in America, after the New York Philharmonic (1842), the Boston Symphony (1881) and the Chicago Symphony (1891). Since its inception, the NHSO has performed regularly in New Haven, most of that time in Yale’s historic Woolsey Hall. It has also toured throughout Connecticut and beyond (including performances at Carnegie Hall), has given numerous radio broadcasts, and world-premiere performances. In addition to presenting classical repertoire, the orchestra has a long tradition of performing pops concerts throughout the state.
