First official symphonic concert took place on 2nd March 1945 in The Częstochowa City Theatre. Soon the orchestra became independent and got its own seat placed Dąbrowski Street for twenty years. Since 1954 starts attempts to build a brand new concert hall. It was created a building (30% of money derived from people of Częstochowa). This building is a great merit of Dionizy Krzepczak – director of the orchestra in 1950s. In 1965 the orchestra moved in its new seat – Konkielów Street (today: Wilson Street) named The House of Culture “Philharmonic Hall”. From this time to Częstochowa have come renowned musicians, conductors and foreign orchestras, for example Chamber Music Orchestra from Lausanne and The Symphonic Orchestra of Moscow.
Besides symphonic concerts, chamber music concerts, education ones, the orchestra was a host and an organizer of three music festivals: Jeunesses Musicales "Pro Musica", The Polish Violin Festival and The Youth Music Festival. First two of them was continued for years.

In 1976 when The Voivodeship of Częstochowa started exist and the orchestra got name The Philharmonic then there was more number and forms of concerts. Almost every kind of music was played (symphonic, popular, chamber music, recitals). Musicians of the orchestra played also in small esembles.
