Bilbao Symphony Orchestra

The Bilbao Symphony Orchestra (Bilbao Orkestra Sinfonikoa) is a cultural treasure from Spain's Basque Country, founded in 1922 as one of the first professional symphony orchestras in the region. Based in the sleek Euskalduna Palace concert hall, this ensemble has built a reputation for championing Basque composers alongside classical staples. Their recent releases—featuring works by Guridi, Usandizaga, and Arambarri—show their dedication to preserving their local musical heritage, often reviving forgotten 20th-century Basque pieces. Under conductors like Erik Nielsen and current music director Robert Treviño, they've balanced tradition with fresh energy, touring internationally while staying rooted in community outreach and educational programs. Whether performing zarzuela classics like *El Caserío* or modern works by Ramon Lazkano, they keep Basque musical identity alive with every bow stroke.
