NEW ZEALAND SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA

The New Zealand Symphony Orchestra is the country’s national full size, full-time professional orchestra and one of the world’s oldest national symphony orchestras, in existence since 1946. The orchestra is continually on the road, touring as many as a hundred symphonic concerts as well as dozens of dedicated concerts for children and small communities each year. While they present all their main programmes in Auckland and Wellington, they tour New Zealand extensively. In 2010, the NZSO completed the most prestigious and successful international tour in their history, appearing at Lucerne’s KKL, Geneva’s Victoria Hall, the Shanghai World Expo and Vienna’s Musikverein. Earlier tours have featured concerts at the BBC Proms, the Snape Maltings in England and the Aichi World Expo in Japan. Led by music director Pietari Inkinen, the NZSO has won consistent praise in the press for its performances, both in concerts and recordings. The NZSO has an extensive catalogue of CD recordings, mostly on the Naxos label. More than one million of these CDs have been sold internationally in the past decade.
