About Worthington Chamber Orchestra
Worthington Chamber Orchestra (WCO), formerly McConnell Arts Center Chamber Orchestra, was founded by Dr. Antoine T. Clark in 2013 and serves Worthington, Ohio, and neighboring communities. The 42-piece chamber orchestra annually performs three masterworks programs and education, family, and chamber concerts throughout the community. In keeping with the orchestra’s mission to present the work of underrepresented artists, WCO performers include college professors and professional freelance musicians from diverse communities. The chamber orchestra’s programming focuses on masterworks (standard orchestral repertoire), new music, commissions, education and family programming, chamber music, interdisciplinary artistic collaborations, and a focus on women and BIPOC composers.
