The Montpelier Chamber Orchestra (MCO) is excited to welcome home Berlin, Vermont, native Jesse Irons, violinist and a founder of the Grammy-nominated Boston string chamber orchestra, "A Far Cry." Jesse has been praised by the Baltimore Sun as a "polished and sensitive" violinist, and his performances are described as "moving… with a perfect mix of passion and precision." (Baltimore Magazine). He received undergraduate and graduate degrees from Baltimore's Peabody Conservatory, serving as a graduate assistant in chamber music. Jesse has appeared in concerts across the United States and Europe, and has performed with touring Broadway musicals, Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Ensemble.
He will lead the orchestra in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Concerto for Violin #4 in D Major. MCO's Music Director Anne Decker will lead the orchestra in Caroline Shaw's Entr'acte arranged for string orchestra and Haydn's Symphony #93 in D Major. Jesse will also visit the VPR studios on Wednesday, November 13.
