The resident music ensemble at Cadogan Hall is the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO), the first London orchestra to have a permanent home. Cadogan Estates offered the RPO the use of the hall as its principal venue in late 2001.[2] The RPO gave its first concert as the resident ensemble of Cadogan Hall in November 2004.[3] Since 2005, Cadogan Hall has also served as the venue for The Proms' chamber music concerts during Monday lunchtimes[4][5] and Proms Saturday matinees; it is also one of the two main London venues of the Orpheus Sinfonia.[6]
Cadogan Hall has also been used as a recording venue. In February 2006, a recording of Mozart symphonies with John Eliot Gardiner and the English Baroque Soloists was produced and made available immediately after the performances.[7][8] In 2009, art rock band Marillion recorded a concert there which was released on the album Live from Cadogan in 2011.
