YIN // YANG

As children, we were taught the concept of opposites – two forces that oppose one another. As we grew and came to see the world more fully, we understood these forces are actually interconnected and complementary. How could we know what “hot” was, if we didn’t also experience “cold”? (As anyone who lives in Wisconsin year-round knows very well!) Together the pieces make a whole.

Now imagine an orchestra playing to an empty room. Or, even more oddly, an audience staring at an empty stage for an evening. It's clear that neither can truly function without the other. As such, neither is more important. It is only when we bring them together that we have a full musical experience.

Since 1975, the Concord Chamber Orchestra has been performing classical music for the enjoyment of Milwaukee-area audiences and offering performance opportunities for talented volunteer and student musicians. For 43 years, we have existed because of the vision and individual contributions of hundreds of musicians, directors, volunteers, and donors.

Join us for our new season as we explore the yin and the yang – balance in its many forms. Purchase your season subscription. Connect with orchestra members and soloists during free receptions after our October, March, and May concerts. Support young artists with a donation to our Walter A. and Dorothy J. Oestreich Concerto Competition. Volunteer your time and talents. Whatever your interaction with the CCO, there's no doubt that you are part of what makes us who we are.
