Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks
Sir Simon Rattle has been chief conductor of the BRSO since the 2023/2024 season. He is the sixth in a line of distinguished conductors after Eugen Jochum, Rafael Kubelík, Sir Colin Davis, Lorin Maazel and Mariss Jansons. Soon after its foundation in 1949, the BRSO developed into an internationally renowned orchestra. The orchestra regularly works with renowned conductors such as Herbert Blomstedt, Franz Welser-Möst, Daniel Harding, Yannick Nézet-Séguin, Jakub Hrůša and Iván Fischer. The orchestra tours throughout Europe, Asia and America and can look back on numerous CD releases and awards,
including the GRAMMY in the category “Best Orchestral Performance” and the “German Record Critics’ Award”. Simon Rattle has already added important milestones to the discography, including works by Mahler and Wagner. Further recordings, intensive promotion of young musicians and performances in the world’s music centres will accompany the collaboration. In a ranking of the ten best orchestras in the world published by the online magazine Bachtrack and compiled by leading music journalists, the BRSO recently came third.
