Tatsuya Daniel Orchestra

The Tatsuya Daniel Orchestra is a growing group of currently around 170 musicians and artists from Ivy League institutions in the US, whose mission is to create a unified global community through music. The orchestra premieres new works by contemporary composers, collaborates with artists and organizations around the world, establishes music schools in many different countries, and implements interdisciplinary projects to engage and improve communities globally. 

Initially beginning as a remote recording project connecting musicians from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, TD Orchestra quickly gained international acclaim for their virtual performances during the pandemic, most notably for the worldwide premiere of their "Sounds of Percussion" album in February 2022. TD Orchestra was founded in 2022 by Tatsuya Daniel, a percussionist and composer who is an MIT alumnus and currently a physics PhD candidate at Brown University.
