The orchestra has received many prizes and awards, among others for its countless record and CD productions. In 2018 Bamberg Symphony was awarded with the German Music Publishers' Association's award for »Best Concert Series«.

The circumstances of its birth make the Bamberg Symphony a mirror of German history. In 1946, ex-members of Prague's German Philharmonic Orchestra met fellow musicians who had likewise been forced to flee their homes by the war and its aftermath. Together they founded the »Bamberg Musicians' Orchestra«, soon after renamed the Bamberg Symphony. Its lineage can be traced back through the Prague Orchestra to the 19th and 18th centuries, so that the Bamberg Symphony's roots reach back to Mahler and Mozart.
