Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra

The Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra is an orchestra formed in Tokyo, Japan.
==History==
TMSO was founded in 1965 by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, which was intended to commerce the 1964 Summer Olympics that took place in Tokyo. The conductor at the time of its founding was Heinz Hoffmann. His successor was Tadashi Mori, who became the conductor in 1967 and began to formulate a full-scale development plan, such as holding regular concerts and increasing the number of members.
From the late 1970s, since Mori assumed command, his skills seem to helped the orchestra gain further recognition, and he began to invite foreign conductors and soloists in earnest. In 1977, with TMSO doing its first concert overseas, it toured the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, participating in the Autumn Music Festival in Warsaw and then the East Berlin Music Festival. In 1986, TMSO was invited to the Seoul International Music Festival held to commemorate the 1986 Asian Games and did the first performance in Korea. A European tour tour effect in 1988. In 1989, TMSO performed in China for the first time, especially in Beijing and Shanghai.
Since its foundation, TMSO has played classical music spanning for 35 years, and went on various global tours during that span. In 2000, TMSO was responsible for the credits for the music of Dragon Quest VII, which released for the Sony PlayStation on August 26, 2000. Koichi Sugiyama was responsible for the music compositions on nearly every Dragon Quest games and would also conduct the orchestra if it played the themes. As the Dragon Quest series had newer releases, TMSO would continue to be credited as a musical performance with Sugiyama composing and conducting as well. This would endure until Sugiyama's death on September 30, 2021.
