The New York Pro Arte Chamber Orchestra, founded in 1969 has achieved national and international
recognition for its new approach to performance as an American string ensemble.
The masterful technique of this group
of inspired soloists under the leadership of its founder, Raffael Adler,
has received acclaim from audiences and critics in New York, major cities
in the USA, and capitals in Europe, for unsurpassed virtuosity.
The ensemble performs and encourages new
compositions for the string ensemble by American composers and includes
in its repertoire works that have long been missing from concert halls,
and are receiving renewed passionate and exemplary performances by this
ensemble. The New York Pro Arte became the trailblazer for American chamber
orchestras who fashioned themselves after this ensemble.
