Latvian National Symphony Orchestra

Orchestra

The Latvian National Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1926 as the Latvian Radio Symphony Orchestra by conductor Arvīds Pārups. Back then there were only 14 musicians in the orchestra. The current name of the orchestra was established after the independence of the Republic of Latvia in 1990. There are about 90 musicians currently working at the orchestra. Every year the LNSO gives more than 60 concerts.
