The Salt Lake Symphony was founded in 1976 and is a volunteer orchestra that performs in the Libby Gardner Concert Hall in Salt Lake City, Utah.[1] The Salt Lake Symphony is best known for its yearly Vienna Ball Gala on Valentine's Day each year.[2] The orchestra's season generally consists of ten unique[clarification needed] performances.

The Salt Lake Symphony is one of the area's volunteer driven orchestras. The Salt Lake Symphony is a non-profit organization performing classical music concerts for the Wasatch Front community. The approximately seventy-five musicians of the SLS volunteer roughly 10,000 hours annually to accomplish this goal.[citation needed]

Robert Baldwin has served as music director and conductor since 2005.[3] He also serves as Director of Orchestral Activities at the University of Utah.
