The Prague RadioSymphonyOrchestra Symfonick orchestr esk ho rozhlasu is based in Prague in the Czech Republic. History Regular radio broadcasting began in the Czech Republic in May, 1923. Live classical musical broadcasts became very popular. It was soon realized that a full time dedicated orchestra was required and on October 1, 1926, the Radiojournal Orchestra was founded under conductor Jozka Charv t . In 1952, the popularity and size of the Radiojournal Orchestra was such that a second orchestra, the Prague RadioSymphonyOrchestra, was split off from the Radiojournal Orchestra. Over the years many orchestra members were involved in other groups and subgroups, some associated with the radio station and others not. By the 1960s there were actually two completely separate orchestras working for the station. These were the Prague RadioOrchestra and the Prague RadioSymphonyOrchestra. They later combined to form the present orchestra.
