Ensemble Performances

For ANY AGE students WITH or WITHOUT musical experience

Members of American Composers Orchestra, as well as guest artists and ensembles perform concerts featuring music by contemporary American composers in assembly-style, interactive performance settings. Performances can stand alone, or serve as an adjunct or supplement to ACO workshops or related classroom work.

Emphasis is placed on educating students about basic musical concepts and sources, and about creative choices made by, and conceptual methods employed by the composers and performers. Works selected for performance often illustrate broader aspects of American culture.
