The program includes Mendelssohn's The Hebrides and Violin Concerto, as well as Shostakovich's Chamber Symphony for String Orchestra.
The history of the Istanbul Philharmonic Orchestra begins with the Borusan Chamber Orchestra, one of the first ventures in the field of culture and arts, created and sponsored by a leading industrial conglomerate in Turkey.
