The National Orchestra of Sweden
The orchestra is a part of Region Västra Götaland. Under the leadership of the conductor Neeme Järvi, 1982–2004, the orchestra made a number of international tours and around a hundred recordings, and established itself as one of the foremost orchestras in Europe. In 1997, the Gothenburg Symphony was appointed as the National Orchestra of Sweden.

The Architect Nils Einar Eriksson, at the buildng site
A substantial donation of 700 000 kronor from Caroline Wijk became the starting point for a new concert hall, located at Götaplatsen, as the old building at Heden had burnt down in 1928.
Nils Einar Eriksson, on the buildng site (2016-02-02) by ArchiveGothenburg Symphony
A house with music in the center. A building open for all, with music at its centre, was the starting point for the architect Nils Einar Eriksson when he drew the plans for the Gothenburg Concert Hall.
Nils Einar Eriksson, the architeture (2016-02-02) by ArchiveGothenburg Symphony
With its stylistically pure functionalism and its beautiful natural materials, the architecture was ground-breaking when the building was inaugurated in 1935.
