Based on a review of existing literature, this brief article presents an initial exploration of the impact of orchestras on various aspects of society, extending beyond their traditional role in entertainment. It highlights the potential of orchestras to act as agents of social change by influencing civil society, fostering personal development, and addressing social issues. The article categorises the social impact of orchestras into four main areas: social and educational impact, cultural and emotional influence, institutional strategy and challenges, and policy and financial support. It also identifies opportunities for future research to deepen our understanding of the transformative role orchestras can play in contemporary society, such as in education, community development, digital engagement, cultural diversity, and health.
