context_page_description: The De La Salle Zobel Symphony Orchestra is an 80-member orchestra that is based in De La Salle-Santiago Zobel School in Muntinlupa City, Philippines. Its current conductor and orchestral arranger is Leopoldo F. Sumera, Jr.
context_section_description: The repertoire of the Orchestra mostly consists of classical pieces complemented by contemporary and popular music.
  At present, the Orchestra continues to perform its original mandate of providing music for special events that are held on campus.  It also plays at concerts during De La Salle Zobel's anniversary celebrations in November and at Christmas.  Prior to the establishment of the school's Center for the Performing Arts, the Orchestra held a year-end concert in March.  This has since been replaced by the Center's annual Performing Arts Festival in February, which also features the other performing groups of the school such as the DLSZ Chorale and the Rondalla Ensemble.
  Up until 2000, when the school presented annual musicals at theaters off campus, the Orchestra provided live music to the school plays.  The last musical to be performed outside of the campus was Teach the World, a play, which was based on the life and times of St. John Baptist De La Salle.  In 2004, during the 25th-anniversary celebrations of De La Salle Zobel, the Orchestra once again provided music to Act 25, which was a revue of the past productions of the school.
  Besides performing at Lasallian schools in the Philippines, the DLSZ Symphony has also been invited to perform in other schools around Metro Manila. Recently, they were invited by Office of the Speaker Judith T, Won Pat in Guam's Performing Arts Festival
  Its rehearsal hall is located at the ground floor of De La Salle Zobel's Angelo King Center for the Performing Arts.
