Every year, the orchestra is reassembled by recruiting and auditioning highly qualified music students aged from 18 to 28. Members are recruited from all over Norway, as well as from Nordic and European places of higher education. Our orchestra is considered to be one of the best of its kind, and it is our vision to be recognized as one of Europe’s leading youth orchestras.

Johannes Gustavsson is noted for his energy, charisma, poise and sensitivity – qualities that have put him in serious demand as a symphonic and operatic conductor across the Nordic region and beyond. He works regularly with all the major orchestras in his native Sweden including the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic, Swedish Radio Symphony and Gothenburg Symphony Orchestras. In Norway he enjoys relationships with the Oslo Philharmonic and Kristiansand Symphony Orchestras and KORK, the Norwegian Radio Orchestra.
