Basel Chamber Orchestra
The Basel Chamber Orchestra is firmly anchored in Basel with its two subscription series at the Stadtcasino and Don Bosco. The concert programmes range from Viennese classical music with works by Mozart and Beethoven to contemporary music. In the long-term project Haydn2032, all of Haydn's symphonies are performed and recorded.
The Basel Chamber Orchestra doesn't need much, but it needs enough.

Friends of Basel Chamber Orchestra at Othmar Schoeck Festival
Ten members of the Friends of the Basel Chamber Orchestra accompanied the Basel Chamber Orchestra to a concert at the Schoeck Festival in Brunnen on September 22, 2025. The slightly mysterious atmosphere on Lake Lucerne, created by the weather, the very special personal insight into Villa Ruhheim and the history of the Schoeck family, followed by the unforgettable performance of Othmar Schoeck's Elegy with the unique soloist Christian Gerhaher and the musicians, who played with inimitable enthusiasm under the baton of Heinz Holliger, is likely to linger in the memory for a long time to come.
