Symphony on the Bay began in September of 1973 as the McMaster Symphony Orchestra, a campus-community orchestra under the leadership of Dr Lee Hepner. The Inaugural Concert took place at Mohawk College Theatre on November 29, 1973. Registered as a charitable organization in 1981, the orchestra left McMaster University in 1988 and became the Greater Hamilton Symphony Association, an independent community orchestra operating under the name of Symphony Hamilton. The orchestra still maintains its original objectives : to perform symphonic music of high quality; to stimulate excellence in instrumental performance; to support, improve, and expand the musical opportunities for those living in the Hamilton and Burlington regions. 1, record 1, English, - Symphony%20on%20the%20Bay
