Hemvärnets Musikkår Göteborg

Swedish wind orchestra formed in 1941 by the then director of the Art Museum in Gothenburg, Professor Axel Romdahl. Until the early 1970s, the orchestra operated as a traditional military band. Subsequently, the orchestra under the direction of the orchestra's previous conductors, Olof Jönbrink (1970 - 1974) and Birger Jarl (1974 - 1985), was transformed into what it is today, a symphonic wind orchestra and in connection with this a "civil" name was also adopted, Gothenburg Symphonic Band .
