DR SymfoniOrkestret (the Danish National Symphony Orchestra) is renowned for its broad repertoire spanning from the classical canon to contemporary compositions, with a particular emphasis on Danish musical heritage. The orchestra frequently commissions new works and collaborates with internationally acclaimed soloists.
