Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia was founded on October 6, 1898 at the New England Conservatory of Music when a group of 13 young men, under the guidance of Ossian Everett Mills, "met to consider the social life of the young men students of that institution" and to "devise ways and means by which it might be improved."
Sinfonia became a national fraternity on October 6, 1900 with the admission of another group of men into the group at the Broad Street Conservatory in Philadelphia. Since that time, Sinfonia has grown into the largest music fraternity in the world with more than 140,000 brothers, and chapters on over 200 college and university campuses across the nation.By teaching men who are united as brothers to live their lives according to Fraternity's ideals, Sinfonia builds better, stronger, broader individuals who are able to live in sympathy and in harmony with their Fraternity brothers and their fellow man.

Sinfonia is a brotherhood of men bound together for mutual helpfulness. Its purpose is not only to bring men together as friends, but also to provide a network of brothers with whom men can commune- a support network that helps the individual to meet the challenges that face him in his daily life, and in the professional world.
Sinfonians share a love of music that unites them as brothers with a common interest. The Fraternity teaches men to develop themselves and their art, not for the sake of art itself, but as a means of enriching the lives of others. Through a multitude of chapter, state, and national events, Sinfonia offers unlimited opportunities for performance, community music outreach, and other activities designed to develop a true appreciation for the power of music to uplift the soul.
