             Klezmer Company Orchestra


 

The Klezmer Company Orchestra, now in its eleventh season, was founded by Music Director Aaron Kula in 1997 to perform world music from a wide range of cultures and historical periods and to perform and promote music from Florida Atlantic University Libraries’ collections. KCO, FAU Libraries’ professional ensemble-in-residence, features accomplished jazz and classical musicians. The ensemble defies classification with its high-energy performances and eclectic programming. Similar to classical orchestras and jazz ensembles, KCO features core soloists with section musicians; orchestra personnel vary depending on the repertoire of each concert. The popular ensemble has performed before thousands at sold-out concerts and has received critical acclaim for its unique style. KCO core members participate in a collaborative process; creating original arrangements that are as unique as the individual musicians in the ensemble.
