Sony Philharmonic Orchestra

The Sony Philharmonic Orchestra is an amateur ensemble of about 110 members, made up of employees of the Sony Group, along with retirees and their families.

In October 2008, the orchestra gave a special performance at Carnegie Hall in New York, under the baton of world-renowned conductor Daniel Harding, appearing with cellist Yo-Yo Ma.

In March 2025, to mark its 30th anniversary, the orchestra presented a commemorative concert in Kumamoto, home to Sony’s semiconductor plants, co-hosted with Sony Semiconductor Solutions Group. On the previous day, an open rehearsal was held for local elementary and junior high school students. Ticket proceeds were donated to the Kumamoto Prefecture World Challenge Support Fund, for which the orchestra received an official letter of appreciation.

Moving forward, we will continue our activities with the aim of contributing to society, culture, and the local community, and we sincerely ask for your continued understanding and support.
