It attracted attention as a new way to enjoy an orchestra and received a great response, so in June of the same year, the orchestra became the first professional orchestra to launch a Niconico channel, “Niconico Tokyo Symphony Orchestra (Niconico),” where they regularly live-stream concerts. ■Channel Name: Niconico Tokyo Symphony Orchestra (Nikoniko) ■Channel URL: https://ch.nicovideo.jp/tokyosymphony ※Channel monthly membership fee: 1,000 yen (excluding tax) ※Videos available exclusively to channel members Press release attachments
