This orchestra attained independent status in 1926 under the name Groninger Orkest Vereeniging, which was further renamed the Noordelijk Filharmonisch Orkest in 1962. In 1989, the NFO was merged with a second orchestra, the Frysk Orkest , to establish the NNO in its present form. The first chief conductor of the NNO was Jacek Kaspszyk, from 1991 to 1995. Subsequent chief conductors included Hans Drewanz and Viktor Liberman . Alexander Vedernikov held the title of principal guest conductor from 2001 to 2003. Michel Tabachnik was chief conductor from 2005 to 2011, and now has the title of conductor laureate. In March 2011, the NNO announced the appointment of Stefan Asbury as its next chief conductor, as of the 2011-2012 season, with an initial contract of 3 years.The orchestra's current managing director is Ingeborg Walinga, who was named to the post in March 2011 and formally assumed the title on 1 June 2011.
