The Trondheim Soloists got modest roots: the group was founded in 1988 as an apprentice ensemble for string players on the music conservatory from the Norwegian College or university of Research and Technology in Trondheim. The players quickly made a rapport, and during an inaugural tour these were greeted with rapturous applause in London and made a decision to change the ensemble right into a professional enterprise. They released their first record, a couple of functions by Edvard Grieg, in 1992. Using their uncommon appear — warm, gutsy, and shiny — generated partly by the mix of Baroque bows and steel strings, the group fascinated the interest of high-profile soloists including violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter and pianist Leif Ove Andsnes. With Mutter they documented a popular edition of Vivaldi’s Four Periods violin concertos in 1999 and produced their Carnegie Hall debut 2 yrs afterwards. In 2002 cellist Øyvind Gimse was appointed the Trondheim Soloists’ creative director, and a fresh path in the group’s advancement started.
