The Primitive Symphonic Orchestra was created in 1988, so that the string students of the School of Music could develop their activity in a group of their own and, in addition, expanding the range of artistic possibilities of society.
During its more than 30 years of trajectory, the group has demonstrated its musical quality throughout the Spanish geography. It has participated in the Festivals of Young Orchestras, held in the Palau de la Música de València and organized by the Consellería de Cultura.
