Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra

The Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra has a rich history that began in 1882 with the Pilsen Philharmonic Circle. Over the years, the ensemble evolved through various forms, eventually adopting its current name in 1934. The orchestra took on its present legal form in 1998, established by the city of Pilsen. Since then, it has developed a strong tradition and reputation, becoming not only a beloved ensemble domestically but also highly respected internationally. The orchestra has collaborated with numerous renowned artists and has performed on prestigious stages across Europe and North America. It is known for its diverse repertoire and significant contributions to recordings, particularly with Czech Radio.

Under the leadership of chief conductors such as Tomáš Brauner, the Pilsen Philharmonic has continued to thrive, offering a wide range of concerts and participating in various festivals, including the Smetana Days International Festival. The orchestra's repertoire spans from Baroque to contemporary music, and it has been involved in notable recordings that highlight both Czech and international music heritage. Its ability to adapt and perform a broad spectrum of works has made it a sought-after ensemble worldwide.
