Founded in 1948 by conductor Paul Sacher and music entrepreneur Hans Jecklin, the Konzertgesellschaft Basel is the region’s leading presenter of classical concerts, bringing world-class international artists to Swiss stages.
Now owned and led by impresario Thomas Jung and concert pianist Anastasia Voltchok, it has grown into one of Switzerland’s biggest names in classical music, with the 2020 acquisition of Geneva’s Agence Caecilia nearly doubling its program to around 70 concerts a year across Basel, Geneva, and Zurich.
The organization also runs Piano Plus Switzerland, supporting young, gifted musicians.
