The Sydney Opera symphony was created in 1932 at that time the company started with 24 musicians. Located in the iconic opera house of Sydney in Australia, the main motive of the band was to become one of the top 5 classic music orchestra bands in the lobe. The band was one of the experts in playing classical music art and was a hit among its listeners. The era after World War 2 saw the rise and the cult following of the music genre.
