Background
The Academy of Music Symphony Orchestra was established in 1948 when the Academy itself was reorganised. Today it consists of students of all grades from the departments of string and wind instruments and percussion.
Repertoire
The orchestra's repertoire includes basic symphony orchestra compositions and vocal-instrumental works ranging from Baroque, Classical and Romantic to 20th-century music. It has performed in Vienna (presenting music by Ramovš, Tomasi and Berlioz), in Zagreb (performing music by Krek, Čajkovski, Šostakovič), in Gorizia (performing music by Osterc, Chopin, Čajkovski) and in some Slovene cities (performing music by Beethoven, Bravničar, Mozart, Haydn, Grieg, Mendelssohn amongst others).
International participation
The orchestra prepares two or three projects annually and stages between eight and 10 concerts a year. In 2005 it participated with Lebanese-Armenian conductor G. Pehlivanian.
Awards
In August 2004 the orchestra received an award at the international festival of European youth orchestras Young Euro Classics in Berlin, presenting compositions by Srebotnjak, Šenk and Šostakovič. At the same event the European Composer's Award was conferred on young Slovene composer Nina Šenk.
