Württemberg Chamber Orchestra

The Württemberg Chamber Orchestra, affectionately nicknamed WKO Heilbronn, has been bringing Baroque and Classical music to life since 1960. Founded in Germany’s wine region by conductor Jörg Faerber, this ensemble built its reputation on crisp, energetic interpretations of composers like Mozart and Bach while embracing modern works too. With a flexible chamber-sized lineup, they’ve become specialists in balancing historical precision with fresh, dynamic performances—think powdered wigs meets modern spark.

Their recent releases show off this playful versatility: dive into their “Color Editions” (Yellow for Mozart concertos, Green for Telemann and Bach) or explore unexpected gems like Kapustin’s jazz-infused orchestral works. Whether teaming up with star soloists in Liszt piano concertos or reviving choral rarities, WKO’s recordings feel like a friendly chat between old masters and curious musicians. No stuffy concert halls here—just 60+ years of reinventing classics with warmth and wit.
