This orchestra was founded
in Bratislava as the first one
to meet the needs of Slovakian broadcasting in 1929. It was a relatively small group at
first but after Alexander Moyzes had become
Musical Director it had gained in size from 1942. They began to give concerts that
were broadcast by Slovak Radio as live transmissions. His successors carried on the work
of bringing Slovakian music to the fore as well as giving performances of
well known works and they became established in the international
forum. They have had successful
concert tours throughout the world and have made many recordings although
their own concert hall in the Slovak Radio building is relatively small and
only houses 530 people in the audience.
