Keep Retaliatory behavior from an
ostensible sockpuppet account. The notability of the orchestra as it relates to the local classical music scene is evidenced by
this article on a personnel change, published, in the area's dominant publication.

Delete Does every University orchestra get a wiki article? Does every organization at Brown? I love Brown University as much as anyone, but it seems way over-represented on Wikipedia because it's an old white wealthy institution. Not every statue, building, and organization at Brown requires a standalone wiki article. Seems to me that it would be served well enough with a sentence or two in the main
Brown University article. -

Comment I personally have no interest in promoting another old white wealthy institution myself, but that's the reality of
Wikipedia:Systemic bias and like it or not, this article satisfies
WP:GNG, even if I personally agree with your sentiment. ~

Keep. In addition to the source Filetime mentioned above, the Wall Street Journal article helps establish notability. In response to the comment above, Wikipedia is
WP:NOTPAPER. There is nothing stopping you from improving the coverage of other universities on Wikipedia.
Brown University is already lengthy and doesn't need more content added into it.
