Irish Chamber Orchestra

The Irish Chamber Orchestra (ICO) brings vibrant energy to classical music with its dynamic performances and genre-blending collaborations. Founded in 1963 as a string ensemble, the group has evolved into a globally admired collective based at the University of Limerick. Known for championing both contemporary works and reimagined classics, they’ve teamed up with artists like violinist Patricia Kopatchinskaja and composer Gerald Barry (whose *Alice's Adventures Under Ground* features in their recent releases). Their eclectic catalog, including projects like *The Connemara Suite* and *Róisín ReImagined*, showcases their knack for weaving Irish influences into fresh arrangements. Whether touring worldwide or hosting community workshops, the ICO balances precision with playful experimentation, making classical music feel both timeless and totally alive.
