“The Energy and vibe of a rock band with the ability of a crack classical chamber group,” Washington Post.
Headed by Artistic Director Richard Tognetti, the ACO is a vivacious and unique group performing not only the masterworks of classical repertoire, but also innovative cross-artform projects with musicians, photographers, cartoonists, singers, surfers and illustrators, to name a few.
For 2010 Richard Tognetti has created a season that displays the spine-tingling electricity of the ACO’s playing with concerts that include works of the symphonic, choral and chamber music repertoire.
