Om Det Kongelige Kapel

Med over 500 års historie er Det Kongelige Kapel verdens ældste orkester. Dets enestående arv og dybe musiske tradition gør det til en hjørnesten i den klassiske musik.

Orkestret er anerkendt for sin kunstneriske kvalitet og prestige og har tiltrukket nogle af verdens mest fremtrædende dirigenter – herunder Herbert von Karajan, som sikrede sig en plads på podiet ved at tilbyde sine tjenester gratis.
