Raleigh Civic Chamber Orchestra Tickets

The Raleigh Civic Chamber Orchestra (RCCO) brings intimate, contemporary and traditional classical repertoire to the Raleigh area with a distinctive focus on world premieres and thematic programs. Based at North Carolina State University (NCSU) and co-sponsored by the Department of Music and the Raleigh Civic Symphony Association (RCSA), RCCO serves as the orchestra’s smaller, nimble counterpart in the Raleigh Civic orchestral family. Since its founding in 2000, RCCO has crafted two programs each year, offering audiences approachable, high-quality chamber ensemble performances that emphasize collaboration, education, and community engagement.

Under the leadership of Conductor/Artistic Director Dr. Peter Askim—an NCSU faculty member, conductor and composer—RCCO presents programming that often centers on world premieres, modern perspectives, and cross-disciplinary themes. The Premieres Project spans a decade of world premieres integrated into Raleigh concert programs, underscoring RCCO’s commitment to fresh, inventive programming while maintaining accessible, chamber-music intimacy.

RCCO blends amateur-level performers with professional expectations, delivering vibrant concerts that appeal to classical purists and curious newcomers alike. The ensemble’s yearly concerts are designed to be engaging, educational, and welcoming—an insider choice for locals wanting to experience contemporary and traditional repertoire performed with clarity and nuance.

2025 brings a compelling slate of performances at NC State venues, with upcoming dates including The Way from Birmingham on March 30, 2025, and Hemispheres as well as Carnival of the Nearly Extinct Animals on November 2 and 9, 2025. All performances in 2025 are staged at Stewart Theatre, Talley Student Union, NC State, offering convenient access for students and Raleigh residents alike.
