Orpheus Chamber Orchestra

Presented by CAMA (Community Arts Music Association) CAMA 2026/2027 International Series — 108th Concert Season, "Virtuosi" Orpheus Chamber Orchestra Isata Kanneh-Mason, piano For over 50 years, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra has been one of classical music's most admired originals: a New York ensemble that plays without a conductor—not as a stunt, but as a philosophy that has built its identity on rotating leadership, deep listening, and chamber-music instincts applied to the orchestral stage.

Their annual New York series, frequent Carnegie Hall appearances, extensive touring, and award-winning recordings confirm their status as one of the world's premier chamber orchestras. British pianist Isata Kanneh-Mason, a musician of luminous poise and quicksilver imagination, is a Decca Classics artist and recipient of the Leonard Bernstein Award. She combines clarity with warmth, and her musical curiosity moves easily between concerto brilliance and intimate dialogue.

With Orpheus, that dialogue becomes the whole point: soloist and orchestra as equal partners, shaping each phrase with shared intent. Expect an evening where ensemble is the star—an experience that feels up-close even in The Granada's grandeur, and a performance culture that turns every entrance into conversation.
