Luxembourg Philharmonic Orchestra

Its current home is the Philharmonie Luxembourg, a large concert hall opened in 2005 in the Kirchberg quarter in the northeast of the city.Following the 1991 privatisation of the Compagnie Luxembourgeoise de Radiodiffusion, in 1995, RTL decided not to renew its contract with the orchestra.Subsequently, the Luxembourg government established the Henri Pensis Foundation to allow for the orchestra to continue its existence.[1] The orchestra's fifth music director, David Shallon suddenly died in 2000 while on tour in Japan.In June 2014, the OPL announced the appointment of Gustavo Gimeno as its next principal conductor, as of the 2015–2016 season, with an initial contract of 4 years.
The orchestra appears at the Quincena Musical de San Sebastián, 2017
