Harvard University. Pierian Sodality
From the very beginning of the Pierian Sodality of 1808, its alumni formed a club of "graduate members" so that they could continue playing together after graduation.

The Pierian Sodality was founded in 1808, and has always predominantly focused on instrumental music. The early society was especially well-known for its late-night serenading of young women. By 1900, the organization could refer to itself as the Harvard University Orchestra. Members joined the Radcliffe Orchestra for joint concerts during the 1930s, and in 1942, the two groups merged to found the Harvard-Radcliffe Orchestra.
