The Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra and the Netherlands Chamber Orchestra are two of the most versatile orchestras in the Netherlands. For over 30 years, the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra and the Netherlands Chamber Orchestra have been the primary orchestra partner of Dutch National Opera and are among the best opera orchestras in Europe. Both orchestras are renowned for their high level and share a concert series in the famous Royal Concertgebouw in Amsterdam.
With the appointment of Lorenzo Viotti in 2021 as chief conductor of the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra and the Dutch Opera this orchestra has developed significantly. Last season the orchestra performed a successful concert tour with pianist Maria Joao Pires in Vienna, Paris, Dresden, Munich and Hamburg. This year the orchestra tours Belgium and Germany. The orchestra excels in repertoire of the romantics such as Wagner, Strauss and Mahler.
The Netherlands Chamber Orchestra is an inspired collective with an expressive way of playing. The orchestra creates unique interpretations through its core values: intensive teamwork and open communication. Gordan Nikolic is the musical leader of the orchestra and leads the orchestra from the concertmaster chair.
