Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra

The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra (RSPO) is one of Sweden's most esteemed musical institutions, renowned for its rich history and commitment to exceptional orchestral performance. Founded in 1902, it has evolved through the years to become an integral part of Stockholm's cultural scene, holding residence at the Konserthuset Stockholm since 1926, a venue known for its superb acoustics and as the annual host of the Nobel Prize ceremonies. Over time, the orchestra has attracted many distinguished composers and conductors, both Swedish and international, helping to establish its international reputation.

The RSPO has an impressive discography that showcases a vast range of musical works from classical symphonies to contemporary pieces. Among its recent releases are "Final Symphony II," highlighting arrangements of music from the popular Final Fantasy video game series, and "Fricsay conducts Tchaikovsky," which pays homage to historic performances. They’ve also ventured into more niche repertoires, as heard in "Tomasi, Jolivet & Others: French Trumpet Concertos" and "Eliasson: Symphonies Nos. 3 & 4." Collaborations with prominent soloists are a testament to the orchestra's versatility and pursuit of varied musical experiences, as seen in "Renée Fleming: Distant Light." Their dedication to exploring both the old and the new is further evident in live historical recordings like "Klemperer Live: Stockholm, Vol. 1" and explorative projects such as "E.S.T. Symphony," which merges jazz and symphonic traditions. The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra remains a dynamic force in the world of classical music, continually expanding its musical horizons and touching the hearts of audiences worldwide.
