The Queensland Symphony Orchestra was formed in 1947 and is now a major part of the musical life in the south of Australia. It forms part of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, and provides the orchestra for opera and ballet productions. It has a regular subscription series of concerts, and has made a number of recordings, including one of Naxos's best selling discs, the complete Dances of Sir Malcolm Arnold, which the Gramophone described as "playing of spirited spontaneity".
