About the Binghamton Philharmonic Orchestra
The Binghamton Philharmonic is the Southern Tier’s largest and longest-serving professional symphony orchestra. It was founded by cellist/conductor Fritz Wallenberg and his wife, violinist Marianne Wallenberg, in 1955 as the Binghamton Symphony and Choral Society, with the purpose of performing live, full-scale orchestral works.
Fritz Wallenberg led the organization artistically until 1976, when he was succeeded as Music Director by David Loebel. From 1982 to 2003, John Covelli was Music Director of the Binghamton Symphony, and, from 2003 to 2016, José-Luis Novo served as Music Director of the Binghamton Philharmonic. Maestro Daniel Hege became Principal Guest Conductor in 2016 and was appointed Music Director in 2018.
Today, the Binghamton Philharmonic serves up to 10,000 people annually through innovative, engaging, and affordable programming, meeting its mission of “Building Community Through the Power of Live Music.”
