ORIGINS

Encompassing over 300 years of music, Origins is an innovative and immersive classical experience – a tapestry of riveting music. From the energetic music of Vivaldi to the ethereal sounds of Arvo Pärt, our virtuosic musicians will take the audience on a tour de force of live music. Origins will be performed in sets, seamlessly weaving paths from Shostakovich to Beethoven to Ginastera to Brahms. As a conductorless orchestra, the ACO creates a thrilling sense of fly-by-the-seat music-making that brings audiences to their feet. Nominated for a 2012 Grammy Award, director Adam LaMotte founded the ACO in 2017.
