Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana

The Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana (OSI) stands as a prominent emblem of classical music excellence in the Italian-speaking region of Switzerland. Established in the 1930s, this distinguished ensemble has carved a significant place for itself in the European classical music landscape, thanks mainly to its versatility, quality, and dynamic approach to repertoire selection. From its base in Lugano, the OSI continues to explore a diverse range of musical genres, extending from the baroque period through to contemporary works, thereby reflecting its adaptability and commitment to musical exploration.

Over the years, the OSI has contributed significantly to the promotion of classical music, not only within Switzerland but also on the international stage, through tours, recordings, and collaborations with renowned soloists and conductors. Its discography includes a broad spectrum of compositions, as evidenced by its recent releases, which range from works by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart to lesser-known gems by composers such as Krommer and Malipiero. This versatility not only showcases the orchestra's technical prowess but also its dedication to bringing a wide array of musical narratives to its audience. The Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana continues to thrive under the guidance of experienced musical directors, ensuring that each performance is not merely a concert but a profound musical experience, resonating with both the connoisseurs and the casual listeners alike.
