Cappella Istropolitana
The chamber orchestra Cappella Istropolitana was founded in 1983. Its members share their pleasure of making music and their enthusiasm to play together in a small ensemble. Most of the musicians are well-known soloists. Famous conductors and interpreters work with the orchestra. Their way of playing is featured by great technical skill, a high level sound and enormous interpreting discipline as well as an extraordinary sensitive feeling for style.
 

 
 

Cappella Istropolitana

The ensemble has become part of the home and foreign music scene. They have performed in nearly all European countries, USA,Canada, Japan, Korea, China, Macao, Hong Kong, Egypt, Israel and New Zealand. The comprehensive repertoire includes German and Italian baroque works, classical, romantic music and compositions of the 20th century as well.

Besides concert events Cappella Istropolitana is also successfully engaged in producing CD and television recordings. Up to now 90 CDs have been issued, all of superior artistic value, which is proved by high sales figures world-wide: the orchestra already received two platinum discs. The BBC Music Magazine classified the Pleyel Symphonies with Cappella Istropolitana to be one of the best recordings of the year 2000.  

Paying tribute to their outstanding artistic facilities in 1991 the City Council of Bratislava appointed the orchestra "Chamber Orchestra of the City of Bratislava".
