ARCO Chamber Orchestra

The ARCO Chamber Orchestra was founded in 1989 by Levon Ambartsumian at the Moscow Tchaikovsky Conservatory. In 1995, Mr. Ambartsumian joined the University of Georgia's School of Music while remaining the artistic director and conductor of ARCO. The home base of the orchestra shifted to the University of Georgia, where the ensemble has now become a talented international blend of musicians. In 2001, ARCO made a New York premiere in Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, followed by an invitation to come back every year. Members are selected by audition.
