Founded by Hiroaki Yura in 2003 and based in Sydney, Australia, the Eminence Symphony Orchestra aims to change the perceptions of symphonic music and hopes to open it to a wider audience by breaking new ground in music history through contemporary programming. They hold the annual concert, A Night In Fantasia, as well as other performances such as Piano Stories. They have recently held Passion, a concert featuring notable video game and anime music in collaboration with Japanese video game composers Yasunori Mitsuda and Hitoshi Sakimoto.
