introduction
The HPAC Orchestra holds subscription concerts with world-class guest conductors and soloists, as well as special concerts such as masterworks concerts, pops concerts, family concerts, and chamber music concerts. We also perform in opera produced by Artistic Director Yutaka Sado and hold youth concerts for first-year junior high school students in Hyogo prefecture. In addition to concerts in the hall, we offer master classes to the orchestra members, and carry out outreach activities to interact with people in the local community. Through such a variety of activities, we always pursue high-quality artistry and aim to spread music culture in the region.
