About Gävle Symphony Orchestra

Hometown

Gävle, Sweden

Formed

1912

Genre

Classical

Sweden's Gävle Symphony Orchestra has championed unusual Swedish works since its founding in 1912. The orchestra's first conductor was Ruben Liljefors, who remained the principal conductor until 1931. Among the group's early digital recordings was a 1997 album devoted to music by Armas Järnefelt. It has also recorded Beethoven and Brahms. The orchestra has attracted top-notch guest soloists, including, in 1965, a 24-year-old Martha Argerich; guest conductors who stopped in Gävle on their way to international careers were Esa-Pekka Salonen, Eri Klas, and Jukka-Pekka Saraste. In 2022, it backed pianist Eric Le Sage on a recording of Mozart piano concertos.

Members of Gävle Symphony Orchestra include, or have included, Åsa Wirdefeldt.
