Orquesta Filarmónica de Málaga

The Orquesta Filarmónica de Málaga (OFM) (Málaga Philharmonic Orchestra) is a Spanish orchestra based in Málaga. Founded in 1991, the Philharmonic play regularly at the Teatro Cervantes in Málaga.

The Málaga Philharmonic Orchestra gave its inaugural concert on 14 February 1991. It was founded under the name Orquesta Ciudad de Málagaof (City Orchestra of Málaga), an association between the Málaga Town Council and the Regional Government of Andalusia, and responded to the conviction that a city such as Málaga ought to have a symphony orchestra of its own.

Throughout the years it has maintained the commitment to offer the city quality music along with the best conductors and soloists on the national and international scene. In charge of the orchestra, and of the project encompassing it, five principal conductors have left their personal mark: Octav Calleya, Odón Alonso, Alexander Rahbari, Aldo Ceccato and Edmon Colomer.

The Málaga Philharmonic Orchestra expanded its reached beyond seasonal concerts after its 10th anniversary. The orchestra has made a number of recordings under the baton of different maestros and from a wide selection of repertories, such as Festival of Ancient Music and Cycle of Contemporary Music.

The Málaga Philharmonic Orchestra has also performed at theaters and festivals around Spain, as well as on a number of tours around Europe through countries like Sweden, Greece, Slovakia, Czech Republic and Germany.
