There are worldwide so many famous orchestras and evidently also many famous conductors, in fact there are more famous conductors than famous orchestras.

Even there was a chief conductor who managed to conduct a famous orchestra for fifty years in a row. His name Evgeny Mravinsky. He conducted the oldest Russian Philharmonic Orchestra: Saint Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra from 1938 - 1988. It was formed in 1882 as the Imperial Music Choir and performed solely for Alexander III and his court. Richard Strauss also conducted this orchestra in 1912.

During the times gone by it changed several times it's name.

Also a very famous Orchestra and several famous conductors is the one I use to play in for seven years. The Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra from Amsterdam, Netherlands. Bernard Haitink conducted the RCO for many years, making recordings for Philips, Decca and EMI classics, on which I also played as a second violinist. He conducted for the London Philharmonic Orchestra and the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
