Svenska Kammarorkestern

Biography

The Swedish Chamber Orchestra has gained worldwide prominence since its founding under its current name in 1995, with conductor Thomas Dausgaard leading a merged ensemble of municipal orchestra players in the city of Örebro. The orchestra has often performed and recorded Romantic-era works at the ensemble size (about 40 players is typical) for which they were originally written. The orchestra has a sizable recording catalog, much of it issued on Sweden's BIS label. In 2024, the group was heard on a recording by hornist Alec Frank-Gemmill of Mozart's horn concertos.
