Friends of the Philharmonia

The Friends of the Philharmonia play a vital role in the life of the Orchestra. It is with the support of its members that the Philharmonia is able to maintain the highest standards of music-making, taking this message from our homes at London’s Royal Festival Hall, the Bedford Corn Exchange and Leicester’s De Montfort Hall, to all across the world.

Through the involvement of the Friends, valuable projects such as Film Archive Preservation, Family Music Days, and the Martin Music Scholarship Fund are supported to perpetuate the Orchestra’s legacy of world class musicianship and service to the community.

Becoming a member provides an exclusive set of benefits, as well as adding to your experience of the Philharmonia’s world class music making. We offer our members a unique involvement into how an internationally acclaimed Orchestra works, by way of access to open rehearsals, involvement in Community and Education projects, exclusive chamber concerts, and a range of special members' events throughout the year.

The recent development of our online shop and other ground-breaking digital projects, have pushed the Philharmonia to the forefront of technological developments within the classical music industry. As a member you will be among the first to hear about exciting new projects – directly from the Orchestra that performed the first classical concert streamed live on-line (watched by 660,000 people all over the world) and the first downloadable classical podcast in October 2005.

Our members' vision and support is truly what keeps our endeavours alive. Become a Friend and discover the Philharmonia Orchestra from a different perspective.
