The Mongolian Symphony Orchestra or Mongolian Philharmonic (Mongolian: Монгол Улсын Филармони) was established on 5 June 1957 under the 118th decree by the ministry of culture becoming one of the earliest in Asia.[1] Tsegmidiin Namsraijav was the first conductor.[citation needed]

On June 15, 2012, a Laural Gala Concert was held to celebrate the 55th anniversary of the orchestra and Namsraijav's 85th birthday.[2]
