ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra
Date: May 16 - 7:30 pm
Venue: National Centre for the Performing Arts
The ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra is a top orchestra of world renown. It defines itself in the Vienna orchestral tradition. Cornelius Meister took over as principal conductor and artistic director in September 2010. The Vienna RSO is known for its exceptional, bold programming. By combining 19th century repertoire with contemporary pieces and rarely performed works of other periods, the programming often places Romantic era classics in unexpected contexts. Cornelius Meister was appointed chief conductor and artistic director of the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra in 2010. In Vienna, in 2016, he received an International Opera Award for the best production of the season with the Vienna production of Peter Grimes.
