Description of Organization: Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia is the world's oldest and largest secret national fraternal
society in music. Sinfonia was born on October 6, 1898, at the New England Conservatory
in Boston, when a group of thirteen young men under the guidance of Ossian Everett
Mills "to consider the social life of the young men students of that institution [and]
to devise ways and means by which it might be improved." Sinfonia became a national
fraternity on October 6, 1900, with the admission of a group of men at the Broad Street
Conservatory in Philadelphia. For over a century, Sinfonians in nearly every field
of study and professional endeavor have transformed music in America. The opportunity
of becoming a Sinfonian is offered to as many men as possible who, through a love
for music, can assist in the fulfillment of the Fraternity's Object and ideals either
by adopting music as a profession, or by working to advance the cause of music in
America.
