The Brussels Philharmonic, an illustrious figure in the classical music scene, has a rich history and a vibrant present that strongly connects it to the breadth and depth of orchestral music. Founded in 1935 under the aegis of the Belgian public broadcaster (NIR/INR), it began as a studio ensemble but quickly expanded its ambition and scope, becoming a standard bearer for symphonic music in Belgium and beyond. Initially named the Large Concert Orchestra before transitioning into the BRT Philharmonic, and later adopting the moniker Brussels Philharmonic in the early 2000s, it has shown a remarkable adaptability and growth over the decades.
Notable for its wide-ranging repertoire, the Brussels Philharmonic has embraced everything from Romantic classics to contemporary scores, evident in its recent releases like Scriabin's Symphony No. 2, Rosenthal's music for film and television, and Brossé's emotionally charged compositions such as "Mantra, Canto & Capriccio." Additionally, the orchestra has a strong affinity for the works of Rachmaninov, as highlighted in their recordings featuring Piano Concertos Nos. 1 & 4 and the lush, melodic sweeps of the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini. This versatility not only showcases the technical prowess and interpretative depth of its musicians but underscores the orchestra's commitment to both preserving the classical canon and exploring contemporary compositions. Under the direction of various esteemed conductors over the years, the Brussels Philharmonic has continued to enchant audiences worldwide, both in live performances and through their expansive discography.
