The first ensemble took place on April 29, 1922, according to BhamWiki. It wasn’t until 1956, that the group became a fully-professional concert orchestra. It was known as Birmingham Symphony Orchestra then.

In 1979, the group’s importance was known statewide, so the name was changed to Alabama Symphony Orchestra. Today they reside at Alys Stephens Center and play all over Birmingham.
