The orchestra was founded in 1960 by a group of musicians who shared a passion for classical music and a desire to bring it to audiences in the region. Over the years, the ensemble has grown in size and reputation, becoming one of the most respected orchestras in Italy and beyond. The founding members of the Haydn Orchester von Bozen und Trient were a group of musicians who had previously played together in various other ensembles. They were united by a shared love of the music of Joseph Haydn, the Austrian composer who is widely regarded as the father of the classical symphony. The group decided to name their new ensemble after Haydn as a tribute to his legacy and influence on classical music. In the early years of the orchestra, the group faced many challenges. They had to work hard to establish themselves in a region that was not known for its classical music scene. They also had to overcome financial difficulties and find ways to attract audiences to their performances. Despite these challenges, the group persevered, and their dedication and hard work paid off. One of the key factors in the success of the Haydn Orchester von Bozen und Trient has been the quality of its musicians. The ensemble has always attracted talented musicians from Italy and beyond, and many of its members have gone on to successful careers in other orchestras and ensembles. The current members of the orchestra are a diverse group of musicians who bring a wide range of skills and experience to the ensemble.
