Sofia Philharmonic Orchestra

The Sofia Philharmonic Orchestra is one of Bulgaria's leading orchestras, boasting a rich history and a vibrant present. Founded in 1892, they've been a cornerstone of the Bulgarian classical music scene for well over a century. Over the years, they've collaborated with renowned conductors and soloists from around the globe, building a reputation for their passionate performances and dedication to both the classic repertoire and the works of Bulgarian composers. Their recordings showcase a wide range of musical styles, from grand operas like Verdi's *La traviata* to the complete symphonies of Bulgarian composer Emil Tabakov.

From their home base in Sofia, the orchestra regularly performs in Bulgaria and tours internationally. Their recent releases demonstrate their commitment to exploring diverse musical landscapes, including lesser-known gems like Meyerbeer's *Jephtas Gelübde* and contemporary works like Teresa Procaccini's orchestral music. They also champion the music of Bulgarian composers, as evidenced by their recordings of works by Peter Hristoskov and, of course, Emil Tabakov. Whether tackling the romanticism of Tchaikovsky or the lively operettas of Strauss, the Sofia Philharmonic Orchestra continues to bring a dynamic energy and deep musicality to their performances.
