For several years Collegium Musicum Copenhagen has been a firm, very popular institution in Copenhagen music life. Every year the ensemble gives five subscription concerts with eminent conductors and soloists. Until 1992 the orchestra played in the Odd Fellow Concert Hall with its rich historic tradition, but since the building burned down they have used the Tivoli Concert Hall for their concert series. The core of the orchestra consists of 42 musicians who have their everyday jobs in other orchestras mostly in the Royal Orchestra and the Danish National Radio Symphony Orchestra. The orchestra's many activities also include touring, first and foremost in Denmark, but also in Norway, Sweden, France and Germany. In addition, the orchestra has been involved over the years in many recordings. Since the start in 1981, Michael Schønwandt has been the Principal Conductor of the Orchestra.
