Biography

Philharmonic Orchestra Of New York Free Music

Philharmonic Orchestra Of New York

Effective period / Period of releases: 1918

The name Philharmonic Orchestra Of New York was in use on Columbia releases conducted by Stransky roughly 1917-1923.
When Mengelberg took over as conductor in 1922, recordings were released by Victor under the name New York Philharmonic Orchestra (1922-1928).

Throughout this period, the concert programs used the formal name "The Philharmonic Society of New York", while "The Philharmonic Orchestra" was the short form referring the the actual orchestra.
In 1928, it merged with New York Symphony Orchestra and the two joint orchestras took the new name: Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra Of New York (P-SONY).
The first concert after the merger and name change was on October 4, 1928.
For recordings from the pre-1928 era, but issued later with P-SONY or NYP as artist: just credit the named orchestra "as on release" with ANV if necessary - no need to credit PONY.
