The Slovak State Philharmonic Košice was established in 1968 as the second professional symphony orchestra of the concert type in Slovakia. The first chief conductor of the orchestra was Bystrík Režucha, and under his leadership the orchestra became one of the leading representatives of the Slovak performing art at home and abroad. It performed on concert stages of European countries, but also in North America and Asia. In 1994 it introduced itself as the first Slovak symphony orchestra on the American continent.
