The group comprises around one hundred musicians and maintains an international profile through tours, acclaimed recordings, and the streaming service Bergenphilive, reflecting its long-standing artistic prominence and historical ties to Edvard Grieg, who led the ensemble in the early 1880s. The orchestra serves audiences seeking high-level live performance and recordings, extending its reach through the Bergenphilive streaming service and international commissions. Its international standing is reflected in Gramophone's Orchestra of the Year award for 2025 and in the appointment of Tabita Berglund as Chief Conductor, effective August 2027 for an initial four-season term.
