  • About Us

    We are an all-volunteer orchestra of more than 50 members from the Greater New Haven area and beyond. Members include teachers, doctors, lawyers, grandparents as well as both students and faculty from our local universities. Founded in 1962 by Ruth Brooks, the orchestra provides cultural enrichment to the Hamden and southern communities through its series of concerts, its annual Young Musicians Concerto Competition, the Ruth T. Brooks Scholarship Award, the annual Benefit Concert, and by the orchestral experience it offers area musicians and soloists.
