One of Boston’s most
promising classical music groups, A Far Cry Chamber
Orchestra performs with the freedom and flexibility
of a string quartet – and the power and beauty of an
orchestra.
This
groundbreaking group of 12 to 13 string musicians
transcends the traditional boundaries of classical
music, experimenting with how it’s prepared,
performed and experienced. The young musicians
operate with rotating leadership and no conductor;
all artistic decisions are made by vote.
Recently named Chamber Orchestra in Residence at
Boston’s Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, A Far Cry
Chamber Orchestra of Boston also maintains a busy
touring schedule across the U.S. The group also
holds an educational partnership with the New
England Conservatory. Making extraordinary music
according to their own rules, A Far Cry is enjoying
a heady ascent toward the highest ranks of today’s
new generation of classical ensembles.
