ARDESKO - The Orchestra

The international chamber orchestra Ardesko was formed in the Netherlands in 2007 and is led by Australian violinist Melanie Waite. The group varies in size depending on the programme and performs in principle without a conductor. Striving to reach as broad an audience as possible Ardesko performs music from all periods from baroque to contemporary and places great importance on projects which break the mold of the traditional classical concert. Performances include cutting edge arts festivals such as Noorderzon and the Grachtenfestival, prestigious events like the ABN AMRO New Year’s concert, leading concert halls including the Amsterdam Concertgebouw and collaborations with internationally acclaimed artists like the Balanescu Quartet.
