Now in its sixth season, the ensemble has already explored a diverse body of repertoire in a series of well-attended and well-received concerts throughout the Greater Boston Area. Although it began as a smaller ensemble primarily performing works for chamber orchestra, string orchestra, and wind ensemble, Apollo has since grown into a full orchestra that regularly performs the larger scale symphonic works of the standard repertoire. The Apollo Ensemble brings together professional musicians, conservatory students, and amateur professionals, providing top-level players excellent performance opportunities and bringing outstanding music to Boston audiences in accessible, free community concerts. The 2023-24 season will see the ensemble perform four concerts in St. John’s Church in Jamaica Plain and one in First Church Cambridge and feature 5 terrific Boston-based soloists, pieces by several young composers including two world premieres, and some of the greatest works of the standard repertoire." } ] } ] ```
