The current Navarra Symphony Orchestra was founded by D. Pablo Sarasate in 1879, which makes it the oldest active orchestral ensemble in Spain.
Founded in 1879 by Pablo Sarasate, the Navarra Symphony Orchestra/Nafarroako Orkestra Sinfonikoa (OSN/NOS) is the oldest active group on the Spanish symphonic scene. Currently, it is part of the Fundación Baluarte Fundazioa, an institution financed mainly by the Government of Navarra and as such it is the official orchestra of the Foral Community. In its 140 years of existence, the Navarra Symphony Orchestra has been invited by the main auditoriums, opera seasons and festivals both in Spain and abroad. Particularly noteworthy is his recurring presence at the Théâtre des Champs Elysées and the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris, the concert tour organized by the Universal Music label in major European auditoriums and an Asian tour in 2009.

As a leading interpreter of Pablo Sarasate, his recording of the complete work of the famous Navarrese composer with the violinist Tianwa Yang was unanimously praised by international critics. Likewise, the OSN has carried out an important program of recordings with maestro Antoni Wit that constitute one of the phonographic milestones in its history. Currently, the OSN/NOS presents to the public of Navarra an annual season of subscription concerts in the cities of Pamplona -Auditorio Baluarte-, Tudela -Teatro Gaztambide- and Tafalla -Cultural Center Tafalla Kulturgunea- and carries out an important social and educational activity in the entire Foral Community through the Sinfónica program in Navarra. Apart from the institutional tasks and the official presentations that it assumes as the symphonic ambassador of Navarra, the OSN/NOS makes disc recordings for such prestigious labels as Sony Classical and soundtracks as acclaimed as the 'Baztan trilogy' by Fernando Velázquez or the Multi-awarded D'artacán y los tres mosqueperros and since 2019 it has collaborated with the AMAEN (Archive of Music and Performing Arts of Navarra) supplying the Fonoteca Navarra with heritage works and new creations by Navarran composers.
