Wellington Boston Symphony Orchestra concerts are funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency. Celebrating the 90th Anniversary of Symphony Hall On display in the first-floor Huntington Avenue corridor of the Cohen Wing is an archival exhibit celebrating the 90th anniversary of Symphony Hall. In addition to newspaper accounts of the building's opening in 1900, the exhibit includes period photographs and a tribute to acoustician Wallace Clement Sabine. Articles on various aspects of Symphony Hall will be featured in the BSO program book throughout the season. The cover shows part of an architect's rendering of Symphony Hall, with lettering for "The Boston Music Hall" visible above what was originally the main entrance on Huntington Avenue. The new building was never so named, however, since the old Music Hall, where the BSO performed until Symphony Hall opened in 1900, was not torn down as planned.
