Biography
The Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra (in Swedish, Sveriges Radios Symfoniorkester) is based in Stockholm and associated with Sveriges Radio or the Swedish Radio network. The group has incubated the careers of several major 20th and 21st century conductors, most of them not Swedish. In addition to its broadcast responsibilities, the Swedish Radio Symphony has performed at major Swedish venues and at such major events abroad as the BBC Proms. The orchestra has a substantial recording catalog, including albums on such major labels as Deutsche Grammophon and Sony Classical; on the latter, the orchestra issued an album of works by Anders Hillborg in 2024.
