About: Metropole Orkest

Founded in 1945 and now the Netherlands' leading international pop and jazz orchestra, the Hilversum-based Metropole Orkest spans jazz, soul, hip-hop and film music - always at the highest level. With chief conductor Jules Buckley at the helm and four Grammy-winning productions to its name, the orchestra keeps seeking out new collaborations with both global stars and Dutch talent.
