"... a cohesive and finely-disciplined group despite being just out of the starting gate..."
- John von Rhein, Chicago Tribune, October 4, 2011
"... one expected technically gleaming and virtuosic performance and the Chroma Chamber Orchestra certainly delivered in a varied program featuring two superb solo turns and a world premiere written for the occasion..."
- Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review, October 3, 2011
With great anticipation we announce the inaugural 2011-2012 season of the Chroma Chamber Orchestra, comprising three concerts at Nichols Hall in Evanston as orchestra-in-residence at the prestigious Music Institute of Chicago. The CCO’s programming will emphasize late-romantic and early modern repertoire (and select contemporary works) of enormous appeal rarely performed by area ensembles. These works will be presented in a context that integrates the performing, visual and literary arts to create a unique, multifaceted concert experience.
The CCO will collaborate with distinguished soloists, composers, writers, visual artists, choreographers, art historians - and diverse educational and cultural institutions (including MIC), from dance companies to art galleries, spanning the entire spectrum of the arts. Opportunities for synergy and cross-fertilization are truly exciting and unparalleled.
