The Orchestra
The Orchestre des Nations is known as a symbol of intercultural exchange, helping to contribute to the international reputation of Geneva. Reflecting the spirit and values of the United Nations, it aims to combine symphonic music with a humanitarian approach and help an ever-increasing and multigenerational audience discover the masterpieces of classical music.
An orchestra of high-level amateurs…
The Orchestre des Nations brings together high-level amateur musicians. Originating from all continents, they all pursued musical high studies before moving towards different career paths. With exceptional musical guidance, the Orchestre des Nations allows these musicians to realise their dream: to play at a professional level, while always giving their best.
…led by an internationally renowned conductor
An internationally known conductor, Antoine Marguier decided, in 2011, to use his experience to work towards a new challenge: to create the best amateur orchestra in the world.
The Orchestre des Nations can boast of having attracted some of the greatest soloists, such as Maxim Vengerov, Khatia Buniatishvili or Gautier Capuçon. The orchestra has also organised prestigious concerts, such as the Ban Ki-moon tribute event, a Music for Peace tour in South Korea and many concerts throughout Switzerland to celebrate its 15th anniversary as a United Nations member.
Many concerts have also been broadcast on the radio, in order to extend their public reach.
