"Kaiserliche Harmonien" mit dem c/o chamber orchestra
In April 1782, Vienna saw the birth of the first imperial "Harmonie" consisting entirely of wind instruments, marking the beginning of a half-century trend in European court music. These ensembles created a new genre and revitalized chamber music, which continues to delight with its wit and spirit. Since 2014, the conductorless c/o chamber orchestra has explored music-making without hierarchies, ranging from chamber music to opera.
