Orchestra

The Talas Symphony Orchestra was formed in 1974 for the opening of the new hall, from the radio orchestra and the conservatory's teachers. Fifty-two players today, with four folk instruments on the strength since 1992. The orchestra records film and television music for IradOne and tours the district towns each spring.
