The state Philharmonic orchestra was established on June 5, 1957. Over 40 years the Philharmonic has played many works by famous western, as well as Mongolian composers. Its proudest moment was the playing of Beethoven's 9th Symphony, conducted by Ts.Namsraijav in 1980, which showed the outstanding professional level that then Mongolian musicians had reached. It is unthinkable to imagine modern Mongolian music without State Prize winners L.Murdorj, Gonchigsumlaa, Birvaa, D.Luvsansharav, B.Damdinsuren, N.Jantsannorov and the famous composer B.Sharav. The premiere of a new opera production named after the great Mongolian Khaan "Chinggis" by B.Sharav took place at the State Opera and Ballet Theatre on the 840th anniversary of the Khaan's birthday on May 3, 2003.
