From its roots in local amateur orchestras in the early 20th century, the Springfield Symphony Orchestra was organized as an official, professional orchestra in 1944. The SSO has grown, adapted, and changed alongside its city over the last 80 years. Celebrate its landmark anniversary of 80 years and learn about the history of Springfield’s very own Symphony Orchestra.
