With its strong sense of belonging to its home, north of the Arctic Circle, this orchestra is committed to conveying knowledge about life and conditions in the Arctic. The orchestra is also the youngest orchestra in Norway and is organised in a unique way: it comprises a sinfonietta in Bodø and a chamber orchestra in Tromsø, each playing weekly concerts in their hometowns. Eight to ten times a year, the two ensembles join forces for larger symphony and opera productions.
