Salzburg Chamber Soloists

In 1991, the violinist Lavard Skou-Larsen and a handful of colleagues decided to form an unusual ensemble. The aim of this ensemble was to perform orchestral chamber music with the freedom of soloists. He combed Europe and the rest of the world until he had a group of first-class musicians. In only its first year of existence, the orchestra toured the United States and Canada.

“The Salzburg Chamber Soloists performed like one massively poised, technically astonishing and stylish featured guest . . . Each phrase had its own emotional register, plucked from the orchestra’s seemingly limitless range.”
