Musicians

The Gstaad Festival Orchestra brings together outstanding musicians from Switzerland’s leading orchestras, forming a distinguished musical 'national team'. Its members are drawn from ensembles such as the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich, the Orchestra of the Zurich Opera, the Sinfonieorchester Biel Solothurn TOBS!, and the Bern Symphony Orchestra. Furthermore, every year some of the best students from Swiss and European high schools are selected to play in the MFO. The aim is to bring together the high-quality sound and famous musical spirit of the top Swiss orchestras, to create a process of dialogue between the musicians, and to forge a dynamic, unique-sounding orchestra every year.
