The Orchestra
Professional Union Musicians Since 1944
The San Antonio Philharmonic is committed to building a strong arts environment for our entire community. At the heart of that are the professional musicians, your friends and neighbors, who live and work in San Antonio.
Felipe Tristán
INTERIM MUSIC DIRECTOR
“San Antonio is one of the most vibrant Latino cities in the U.S., and that means a lot to me as a Mexican-American conductor. Having served as Associate Conductor of the SA Phil since 2024, I have seen and been honored to experience firsthand the performances of this world-class orchestra. We are looking ahead. This is a moment of real opportunity, and we will meet it with ambitious programming that places our musicians f ront and center, with deep community engagement, and an artistic vision that puts San Antonio on the international map. My career has taken me around the world, and I am honored to now step into this role, committed to building something extraordinary that truly belongs to San Antonio.”
