As its name suggests, this chamber ensemble of more than 30 years dedicates itself primarily to compositions from the Classical period, the 18th and 19th century subset of “classical music” dominated by the likes of Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven.  The Boston Classical Orchestra’s (BCO) programs also feature Romantic composers such as Brahms, Mendelssohn, and Tchaikovsky, and sometimes include contemporary composers as well.

In the realm of educational outreach, the orchestra has an ongoing relationship with the Boston Arts Academy, involving sponsorship of an annual scholarship competition for BAA student musicians as well as access to BCO rehearsals and concerts for students.
