About the BCCO

The Brooklyn Conservatory Community Orchestra (BCCO) is a passionate and diverse group of dedicated amateur and professional musicians who perform the great masterpieces of the orchestral repertoire, from Tchaikovsky and Stravinsky to contemporary works by living composers. Now in its 24th year, the BCCO’s members feel more keenly than ever the profound joys of playing and sharing some of the world’s most beautiful music. The 72-member ensemble is composed of players from all walks of life, from middle-school art teachers to law professors and local baristas. Open by audition to adult orchestral musicians who play at an advanced level, the BCCO presents four to six concerts for the community throughout the year, including a popular family concert at the Brooklyn Museum.
