NHK Symphony Orchestra, Tokyo. The history of the NHK Symphony Orchestra dates back to October 5th, 1926 when a professional orchestra called the New Symphony Orchestra was formed. After being briefly called the Japan Symphony Orchestra, it was renamed the NHK Symphony Orchestra when it began to receive full financial support from Nippon Hoso Kyokai (Japan Broadcasting Corporation) in 1951. During those years, the orchestra invited German conductor Joseph Rosenstock as its Chief Conductor, under whose baton the orchestra established the foundation to become Japan’s leading orchestra.

The NHK Symphony Orchestra (NHK交響楽団 NHK Kōkyō Gakudan) is a Japanese broadcast orchestra based in Tokyo. The orchestra gives concerts in several venues, including the NHK Hall, Suntory Hall, and the Tokyo Opera City Concert Hall. The orchestra began as the New Symphony Orchestra on October 5, 1926 and was the country's first professional symphony orchestra. Later, it changed its name to the Japan Symphony Orchestra. In 1951, after receiving financial support from NHK, the orchestra took its current name.

After a long absence, Paavo Järvi makes a glorious return to Hong Kong alongside NHK Symphony Orchestra, Japan’s leading orchestra. A member of Estonia’s 'first family' of musicians (both his father Neeme and younger brother Kristjan are also world-renowned conductors), Järvi has led the NHKSO as Chief Conductor since 2015 and celebrated the orchestra’s 90th birthday in 2016 with a European tour across some of the continent’s most prestigious venues.

On 28 February, NHK Symphony Orchestra perform as part of the Hong Kong Arts Festival with conductor Paavo Järvi and soloist Zhang Zuo. At the HK Cultural Centre Concert Hall the Orchestra perform Takemitsu’s How Slow the Wind, pianist Zhang Zuo then performs Ravel’s Piano Concerto, and Prokofiev’s Symphony N. completes the programme.

Paavo Järvi joined the NHK Symphony Orchestra in September 2015 and, after just one season, has seen his contract extended until August 2021. The announcement came in October after the Orchestra celebrated its 90th anniversary, under Järvi’s baton, in the NHK Hall in Tokyo on 8 September 2016, with a performance of Gustav Mahler’s Eighth Symphony. Since making her debut at the Royal Concertgebouw in 1997, Janine Jansen.
