About
CREA orkest is a student orchestra with an unusual mix: conservatoire students play next to keen amateur musicians, and the result is known for a high musical level without any stiffness. The ensemble is linked to Stichting CREA at the University of Amsterdam and has been around since 1988. Conductor Bas Pollard has guided the orchestra since the very beginning, which gives it a rare sense of continuity for a student group. The repertoire leans toward big orchestral works, with Mahler's first symphony and Copland's Four Dance Episodes from Rodeo among the pieces they have taken on. Expect a relaxed atmosphere on stage and plenty of energy in the playing.
