Documented collaborators
Since 1964, the Chamber Orchestra Of Philadelphia (COP) has brought intimate, conductor-less performances to audiences in and around Philadelphia. Founded as a 33-member chamber ensemble, COP collaborates with living composers and presents thoughtfully programmed concerts in a variety of venues. Under the direction of Music Director David Hayes (2024–present), COP emphasizes clarity of texture, transparent ensemble playing, and collaborative performances that highlight new and contemporary repertoire alongside core classical works.
