Orchestra of the Zurich University of the Arts
Orchestral practice plays a central role at the ZHdK. The representative university formations โOrchester der ZHdKโ and the ensemble for contemporary music โArc-en-Cielโ and the polivalent โKammerensemble der ZHdKโ enrich the cultural offerings in the greater Zurich area.
The programme spectrum covers the repertoire from the early 18th to the 21st century for formations ranging from small chamber ensembles to large symphony orchestras. Through collaboration with the orchestras of the Tonhalle and Zurich Opera, the Musikkollegium Winterthur and the Zรผrcher Kammerorchester, students gain practice and insight into the world of professional orchestras.
