Houston Symphony Orchestra. Founded in 1913 with 35 players, the orchestra reorganized in 1930 and presented its first full season of concerts in 1931. Among its important conductors have been Leopold Stokowski (1955–60), Sir John Barbirolli (1960–67), André Previn (1967–69), Lawrence Foster (1970—79), Michael Palmer (1979–81), Sergiu Comissiona (1980–88), and Christoph Eschenbach (1988–99). The permanent home of the symphony is the Jesse H. Jones Hall for the Performing Arts, which opened in 1966 as part of Houston's Civic Center.
