Vlaams Radio Koor

About this artist

Vlaams Radio Koor (English: Flemish Radio Choir, French: Le Vlaams Radiokoor) was founded in 1937 by the Belgian National Radio Institute (NIR/INR). The history of the radio choir is inextricably linked with that of its sister ensemble at the same broadcaster: the Great Symphony Orchestra (now Brussels Philharmonic, previously Vlaams Radio Orkest).

Conductors of the choir have been Vic Nees (1970-1996), Johan Duijck (1998-2008), Bo Holten (2008-2011), Hervé Niquet (2011-2019) and Bart Van Reyn (2019-).
