Goals and achievements of the Saigon Philharmonic Orchestra

 

Since the relaunch concert (June 2017) of the SPO and in that time we have grown rapidly. We have received encouragement and support from the wider public and continued to extend and reach out to the people of Vietnam. This is our greatest achievement and has been our ultimate goal, to become an Orchestra for both the citizens of Saigon, for visitors and also other local and foreign residents. We are committed to developing this wonderful cultural activity in order to establish Saigon as a regional center of performing excellence. In addition, we wish to create the opportunity to welcome international artists, soloists, and conductors so that they bring their skills and talents to the SPO to showcase in our community. This is a perfect opportunity for them to share their experience, knowledge, and skills with local musicians, students, and music lovers.

 

With the youth from our society, we wish to bring music into their lives and engage them by allowing them to experience live and exhilarating music, and also by involving them with our regular activities. We envisage outreach activities with smaller ensembles of our musicians traveling off-site to schools, museums, etc. and also allowing groups of younger adults access to the orchestra venue to experience performances, either way, this will benefit and inspire our future generations of children.  They will be our future supporters, players, audiences, and hopefully our future sponsors!

 

The SPO’s professional team, are made up of local and international artists. With their talent and experience, they will be capable of connecting with the world’s finest musicians and invite them to contribute to the high standard of performances in Saigon and Vietnam.

The beauty and benefit of this plan is we are all part of a team, benefiting every part of our society. We are confident that SPO will remain a sustainable and independent venture with both the professional and performance excellence it has so far clearly demonstrated.

Our first aim is to promote classical music to the highest level possible and then to become part of the life and culture of the wonderful city of Saigon. To be able to build this beacon of excellence we need people with passion, commitment, and vision to join the SPO. The more people who join and the quicker they do so will make the dream of the SPO became a reality.
