Inspired by the legacy of great recording orchestras—such as the National Philharmonic Orchestra of London, founded by conductor-producer Charles Gerhardt and violinist Sidney Sax, and earlier the Philharmonia Orchestra established by Walter Legge—the New York City Recording Orchestra (NYCRO) is dedicated to continuing the tradition of recording major symphonic works across all eras.

At the same time, NYCRO embraces the evolving landscape of modern media. The orchestra is equally committed to recording film scores, video game soundtracks, and collaborating with both prominent and emerging artists across a wide range of musical styles.

NYCRO provides comprehensive orchestral recording solutions, leveraging deep industry expertise to support composers, producers, studios, and media companies. Through meticulously coordinated sessions, our musicians and production teams uphold uncompromising standards of precision and artistry.

From film and television to video games, commercials, and contemporary media, NYCRO delivers world-class performance and production services—bringing each project to life with clarity, depth, and excellence that meet and exceed today’s professional expectations.
