About the National Symphony Orchestra
The National Symphony Orchestra (NSO) has been at the centre of Ireland’s cultural life for over 75 years. Formerly the RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra, it was founded in 1948 as the Raidió Éireann Symphony Orchestra. In 2022, the Orchestra transferred from RTÉ to the remit of the National Concert Hall.

The NSO performs a season of up to seventy events per annum at the National Concert Hall in Dublin, undertaking a touring programme, family concerts and commercial opportunities. In addition, the NSO produces broadcasts for RTÉ Lyric FM, film and audio recordings as well as educational concerts and events.
