Ruse Philharmonic Orchestra

The **Rousse Philharmonic Orchestra** was a prominent Bulgarian orchestra that operated from 1948 to 2010. During its active years, it collaborated with some of Bulgaria's finest conductors, including Konstantin Iliev, Dobrin Petkov, and Nayden Todorov, who served as the General Music Director from 2005. The orchestra was known for hosting international music festivals, such as the March Music Days and Winter Music Evenings, which attracted renowned conductors and soloists like Kurt Mazur and Valeri Gergiev. Its repertoire spanned a wide range of genres, from early music to contemporary works, including pieces by Prokofiev, Stravinsky, and Richard Strauss. The orchestra toured extensively in Europe and recorded with notable labels.

The Rousse Philharmonic Orchestra was also part of the Opera & Philharmonic Society Rousse, established in 1999, which combined the talents of the Rousse State Opera and the orchestra. This society presented a diverse range of performances, including opera, ballet, and symphonic works. Despite its rich history, the orchestra ceased operations in 2010.
