editThe former Syracuse Symphony Orchestra filed for chapter 7 bankruptcy in 2011.[4] Symphoria was launched as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in 2012 as a musician-led cooperative.[5][6]
After locally broadcasting concerts during the pandemic, Symphoria launched their 2022-23, tenth anniversary season with a return to in-person concerts.[7]
On February 17, 2024 Symphoria announced it was changing its name to The Syracuse Orchestra.[8]
