    Established in 1925 as Statsradiofoniens Orkester, it had evolved into a symphony orchestra by 1942. By 1948, the orchestra had attained membership of 92 musicians and thus the largest symphony orchestra in Scandinavia. Permanent conductors during this period were Launy Grøndahl (1925-56), Emil Reesen (1927-36), Erik Tuxen (1936-57) and Thomas Jensen (1957-63). From 1931 the orchestra performed at “Stærekassen” (later renamed to Den Danske Statsradiofoni). The orchestra gave their first concert at Den Danske Statsradiofoni in 1945, their permanent base until 2009.

    - From 1925 to 1942: Statsradiofoniens Orkester
