About

The city of Brasov inaugurated its concert life with an artistic event organized by the Brasov Philharmonic Society ("Kronstädter Philarmonische Gesellschaft") on May 6, 1878, under the baton of Anton Brandner.   Conductor, composer and teacher, he can be considered the initiator and founder of the society and, by extension, of today's Brașov Philharmonic. Today, the Brașov Philharmonic is conducted by pianist Ioan-Dragoș Dimitriu and operates in the Sala Patria, renovated in 2013.
The Brașov Philharmonic currently organises concerts and recitals that bring high
artistic quality in the city of Brasov. Every Thursday, a new symphonic concert takes place at the Philharmonic.
Every week, the artists of the Brașov Philharmonic perform alongside guests from Romania and from abroad. 
In addition to the Thursday evening concerts, the Brasov Philharmonic brings recitals to the Brasov public, educational concerts and special events. In 2021, the Brașov Philharmonic has organised over 160 musical events. These consisted of symphonic concerts as well as jazz, pop, film and contemporary music concerts. The Philharmonic's artists performed not only at the Sala Patria, but also in St. John's Square, in the Avantgarden 3 district, in Poiana Narciselor or in the village of Șirnea where they performed on the occasion of the Olympic Day. The Philharmonic Brașov has brought many artistic programmes from abroad to the city, collaborating with the Embassy of Embassy of the United States, the Embassy of Switzerland and the Embassy of Croatia.
In February 2021, the Brașov Philharmonic received the award for Cultural Organisation of the Year in at the Cultural Awards Gala in Brasov, organized by the Corona Cultural Consortium.
