The Brussels Philharmonic is a Belgian radio orchestra located in Brussels. Formerly known as the Groot Symfonie-Orkest, BRT Philharmonic Orchestra, and later as the Flemish Radio Orchestra, the orchestra has been linked to the Flemish public broadcaster NIR/INR (the present VRT).
History
The orchestra was founded in 1935 as a studio ensemble of public broadcasting with the name of Groot Symfonie-Orkest.[1] In 1998, it began its independent existence as the VRT Radio Orkest (Flemish Radio Orchestra). From 2008, the orchestra took the new name of the Brussels Philharmonic.
Description
Since 2005, the residence of the orchestra has been Studio 4 of the renovated Flagey Building in Brussels. The orchestra also gives concerts in the BOZAR, Centre for Fine Arts. The orchestra also plays elsewhere in Flanders, as well as abroad in London, Vienna and Tokyo. The orchestra also performs as accompanying ensemble with the Royal Ballet of Flanders.
The orchestra's current music director is Stéphane Denève, as of the 2015–2016 season.[2][3] One new initiative scheduled for Denève's tenure is the establishment of CffOR (Centre for Future Orchestral Repertoire), for commissioning new compositions. With the orchestra, Denève has commercially recorded music of Guillaume Connesson,[4] and Sergei Prokofiev. In 2017, the orchestra and Denève accompanied the finale of the Queen Elisabeth Competition for cello. In March 2019, the orchestra made its debut at Carnegie Hall in New York under the baton of Denève.[5] In September 2020, the orchestra started live-streaming its concerts in Brussels in collaboration with MotorMusic and Evil Penguin TV. Denève is scheduled to conclude his music directorship of the orchestra at the close of the 2021-2022 season.[6]
In 2021, Kazushi Ōno first guest-conducted the orchestra. In September 2021, the orchestra announced the appointment of Ōno as its next music director, effective with the 2022-2023 season.[6] In February 2022, the orchestra announced the appointment of Ilan Volkov as principal guest conductor, effective with the 2022–2023 season, following three guest-conducting appearances with the orchestra, the first in March 2021.[7]
