	The Orpheus Chamber Orchestra at Baruch College
		Orpheus is a conductorless, multi-leadered orchestra of international reknown.
		The conductorless "Orpheus Model" makes it an artistic home for dozens of virtuoso musicians to practice their art with freedom to experiment, explore, and work together, within a framework of mutual respect and commitment, toward the attainment of a common goal.
		The Orpheus process (including, for example, the way leadership responsibilities in the orchestra shift throughout each piece of music in response to the demands of the score) is also the subject of a case study by Harvard University Professor J. Richard Hackman.

	Orpheus Chamber Orchestra Oct. 5
		The centerpiece of each Orpheus season is its five-concert series at Carnegie Hall, the orchestra's official New York home.
		The ensemble developed its approach to the study and performance of this repertoire by bringing to the orchestral setting the chamber music principles of personal involvement and mutual respect.
		Orpheus is a self-governing organization; the players demand of one another a high level of personal and musical responsibility and they rotate seating positions to give each player the opportunity to lead a section.

	The Conductor-less Orchestra -- Harvey Seifter full-text article
		In place of the traditional fixed leadership position of conductor, Orpheus has developed a unique system of collaborative leadership that invites every member of the orchestra to participate in leadership positions, either leading the group in rehearsal and performance as concertmaster, or by leading one of the orchestra's many different formal or informal teams.
		While leadership within Orpheus is not fixed with any one particular person or position, the organization's members have clear roles in addition to their jobs as musicians, administrators, or members of the board of trustees.
		In an organization such as Orpheus where positional power is minimal, and where leadership is not fixed, the ability of leaders to build consensus and to convince others to support their opinions is paramount.

	Joe's Dartblog: Orpheus Chamber Orchestra
		Orpheus is very cohesive here, as the plucking, still rapid in pace, moves from forte to piano en masse and wonderfully evenly.
		As the orchestra swells before the ending of the movement, Orpheus sounds very tight, particularly in the violins and flutes, which match one another in evoking the feeling of water (invocations of Rome’s fountains, perhaps) on top of a thick homophonic bed played by the rest of the ensemble.
		Orpheus has been studied by the likes of Harvard Business School, University of Chicago, and New York University for their self-governing structure; there is no conductor, concertmasters rotate, and most things are put to a vote.

	Edinburgh Festivals - Orpheus Chamber Orchestra
		DICTATORSHIPS are the natural government of orchestras, so one would ordinarily be wary of a large ensemble which describes its working method as a “democratic, artistic collaboration”.
		However, the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra has been democratising its music-making for the last 30 years and has some experience of the pitfalls leaderless performance can hazard.
		Yet for all the orchestra’s know-how, this performance of Mozart’s piano concerto No 17 in G took egalitarianism a step too far, the ensemble’s winds covering Goode’s ornate passagework in the first movement, preferring emphasis on functional, harmonic progressions.

		The Orpheus chamber orchestra, smaller than a regular orchestra, is comprised mainly by strings, woodwinds, and a blue harpsichord.
		As they handed the themes back and forth, the orchestra and Ax seemed to be playing off one another, as if it were a sport or a game; trying to top one another in virtuosity, truly enjoying themselves.
		As the orchestra and the German pianist, Lars Vogt began playing, you could sense that they were seducing you slowly into the piece, beguiling you with suggestiveness.
