From 1943 to 1946 the Croatian Krešimír Baranovič was the chief conductor of the orchestra, to which he made a vital contribution. His successors were L’udovít Rajter, Ladislav Slovák, Václav Jiráček, Otakar Trhlík, Bystrík Režucha and Ondrej Lenárd, whose successful performances and recordings from 1977 to 1990 helped the orchestra to establish itself as an internationally known concert ensemble.
