The Klassische Philharmonie Bonn was founded in 1986 and emerged from the Chur Cölnisches Orchester, an expanded chamber orchestra with wind instruments. Today, the orchestra consists of up to 60 members and plays regular subscription series throughout Germany. The repertoire of the Klassische Philharmonie Bonn ranges from Baroque to modern music, with a special focus on works of the »Viennese Classical« period: in addition to Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, works by their contemporaries and students are also regularly featured in the programme.
