On November 18th, 2016, the Suzhou Symphony Orchestra (SZS) is born on the shore of Jinji Lake. Steeped in the rich cultural origin of ancient Suzhou civilization and founding philosophy of harmony and inclusiveness of the Suzhou Industrial Park, the Suzhou Symphony Orchestra is poised to become a cultural postcard from the ancient city of Suzhou to the world.

Characterized by experience combined with youth, the musicians of the SZS represent 15 countries/regions. Since its inception, the SZS has enjoyed prestigious collaboration with such musical luminaries as Roberto Abbado, Daniel Oren, Christof Eschenbach, Tan Dun, Anne-Sophie Mutter, among others. In the previous years, the SZS went on tours in France, Germany, Austria, Singapore, Japan, and other countries and regions. 

With the need of expanding our current formation, Suzhou Symphony Orchestra is now looking for excellent musical talents at home and abroad.
