More on The Philharmonic Orchestra
Description from Wikipedia:
The Philharmonic Orchestra (TPO) is an orchestra in Singapore, initiated as a project by Maestro Lim Yau in 1998. The orchestra consists of young adults who have a keen and serious interest to learn, to develop, to train, and to perform, as ensemble musicians. Formerly known as the Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra (PCO), the group became The Philharmonic Orchestra (TPO) to better reflect its intention to explore both symphonic and chamber works.
The Philharmonic Orchestra seeks to breathe new life into musical works and explore a repertoire that is very much neglected by big orchestras like SSO. The orchestra held its first concert in May 1998, performing Handel's The Fireworks, Prokofiev's Classical Symphony and Mozart's Symphony No. 41 "Jupiter". For the 2007/2008 season, TPO has been engaged by Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay to undertake a year-long exploration of all Jean Sibelius' Symphonies in a series of three concerts entitled Northern Exposure.
The Philharmonic Orchestra is also known for its commanding standard as a Pit orchestra. It has received good reviews for its work as a pit orchestra when engaged by the Singapore Dance Theatre and Singapore Lyric Opera.
TPO is currently adopted by, and is rehearsing at Old School. In December 2001, the orchestra was engaged by the National Arts Council Singapore as the accompanying orchestra for the concerto section at the National Music Competition. The orchestra repeated the engagement in 2003.
