Tsz To Wong (DMA ’24) has just won a section cello position with the San Antonio Philharmonic orchestra. A professional orchestra in San Antonio dates back to 1939 when the San Antonio Symphony orchestra was founded. When the San Antonio Symphony management ceased operations in June 2022, the musicians—some of whom won their seats in the 1970s and ‘80s—were determined to preserve world-class music in San Antonio, forming the San Antonio Philharmonic. In February 2024, Jeffrey Kahane was named the San Antonio Philharmonic’s first music director. In October 2024, the Philharmonic signed an agreement to make the Scottish Rite Cathedral, a structure built in 1924, its permanent home.
Congratulations, Tsz To!
