Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra

The Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra (Orchestre Philharmonique de Monte-Carlo) is one of the most prestigious musical ensembles on the international stage, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the Principality of Monaco. Since its inception in 1856, the orchestra has grown under the patronage of the Monaco Royal Family, specifically initiated by Prince Charles III. It plays a pivotal role in the principality's cultural life, performing a wide-ranging repertoire from classical masterpieces to contemporary works. Over the years, the Monte-Carlo Philharmonic has been under the baton of illustrious music directors and guest conductors, which has significantly contributed to its reputation for musical excellence.

Their recent releases showcase the orchestra's versatility and its dedication to both the core classical repertoire and modern compositions. From the romantic complexities of Tchaikovsky's "Piano Concerto No. 1" and Rachmaninoff's "Piano Concerto No. 2" to the intricate details of Berlioz's "Les nuits d'été" and Ravel's "Shéhérazade," these recordings highlight the ensemble's rich sound and interpretative depth. The inclusion of works like Pascal Zavaro's "Into The Wild" and the project titled "3 Créations" reflect the orchestra's commitment to contemporary music, fostering a dialogue between the music of the past and present. Under the guidance of its current artistic director and principal conductors, the Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra continues to enchant audiences worldwide with its performances, both in the opulent Salle Garnier of the Opéra de Monte-Carlo and on international stages.
