Collaborations

Chamber Concerts and Collaborations

Because of its intimate nature, chamber music has been described as “music of friends.” ROCO continues the tradition of small ensembles performing in intimate environments, allowing listeners to enjoy the subtleties of the musical conversation among the musicians and between musicians and audience.

ROCO welcomes back Alastair Willis, who will conduct the world premiere of original compositions by Anthony Brandt and Jefferson Todd Frazier at the Buckyball Gala celebrating Rice University The Smalley Institute’s “The Year of NANO.”
