The Klezmer Company Orchestra (KCO) was founded by Aaron Kula in 1997 with a mission to perform world music from a wide range of cultures and historical periods from Florida Atlantic University Libraries Special Collections & Archives. KCO has successfully taken music in the collections literally from shelf to stage. KCO, the professional ensemble-in-residence at FAU Libraries, features accomplished jazz and classical musicians. Similar to classical orchestras and jazz ensembles, KCO features core soloists with section musicians; orchestra personnel vary depending on the repertoire of each concert. This popular ensemble has performed its unique ethnic orchestral jazz before thousands at sold-out concerts, received critical acclaim for its innovative musical fusion and recently released its studio-produced debut album, Beyond the Tribes.
