The Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra (Liszt Ferenc Kamarazenekar) is a chamber orchestra based in Budapest, Hungary.

The chamber orchestra took its name from the great Hungarian composer Franz Liszt, to pay homage to his genius, inseparable with the establishment of Hungarian music, whose spirit irradiates the musical life of the world. After having studied for years at the Franz Liszt Academy in Budapest, the orchestra made its debut in 1963[1] and since then has played a very significant role in Hungarian and international musical life.

The Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra consists of 17 strings, with the addition of other instruments as needed (harpsichord, winds, etc.).
