Today, on Leonard Lopate at Large, Leonard talks with the directors of Orpheus Chamber Orchestra about their unique approach to performing classical music.
The Orpheus Chamber Orchestra was founded in 1972 by a group of like-minded young musicians determined to combine the intimacy and warmth of a chamber ensemble with the richness of an orchestra.
The ensemble performs without a conductor, rotating musical leadership roles for each work, with a focus on presenting diverse repertoire through collaboration and open dialogue.
Orpheus aims to bring this unique approach to students of all ages through its worldwide education and engagement programs: Access Orpheus-NYC, Orpheus Music Academy, Orpheus Leadership Institute, and their newest project Orpheus Reflections, a program for people with Alzheimers and dementia and their caregivers.
