Friends of Kammerorchester Basel
Commitment needs enthusiastic partners!
We love classical music
We love classical music and the Basel Chamber Orchestra, in whose concerts sparks fly! Whether in baroque garb, with classical, romantic symphonies or a contemporary commissioned work: the internationally renowned ensemble inspires. Let yourself be inspired too.
Energetic concerts bursting with the joy of music-making are the hallmark of the Basel Chamber Orchestra. Its transparent and flexible sound is unmistakable and highly appreciated by soloists and guest conductors. Anchored in Basel, the ensemble is a welcome guest in Europe's major music halls and at important festivals.
