Odense Symphony Orchestra

orchestra

Ulf Jeppesen

Odense Symphony Orchestra is one of Denmark’s five regional orchestras. The orchestra was founded in 1946, but its roots go back to around 1800. From being a theatre orchestra that also played symphonic music, the orchestra today appears as a modern symphony orchestra with a high level of activity. The orchestra’s repertoire has a wide range and covers everything from film concerts, chamber music and family concerts to the great symphonic works and opera, such as Richard Wagner’s Der Ring des Nibelungen. Odense Symphony Orchestra had 22 musicians at its founding but has grown to 73 permanent musicians over the years, from Denmark and all over the world. The orchestra performs around 100 concerts a year. The majority of the concerts take place in the Carl Nielsen Hall in Odense’s Concert House, but the orchestra tours throughout Denmark and the rest of the world.
