OUR MISSION
Your support ensured that 2018 was a year of unprecedented growth marked by new
partnerships and many successes, inspired by the incredible Maestro Eckart Preu. Thank you
for the part you played in helping the CCO to achieve the seemingly impossible: an over 50%
increase in single ticket sales and a 30% increase in subscriptions!
Without you - subscribers, donors, volunteers, Board members, supporters, patrons and
friends - the successes detailed in the following pages would not have been possible.
Eckart and the musicians ensured that Summermusik 2018 was another inventive, engaging
and collaborative season that put CCO audiences and music into more venues across Greater
Cincinnati.
The first MusikArt collaboration with Wash Park Art Gallery featured original works by five
local artists who had been expertly paired with the concert theme that would most resonate
with their styles and passions. These artists brought new life to instruments, using them as
canvases to represent Eckart’s vision for each of the four Mainstage concerts and the season
as a whole.
From world premieres to our very own CCO Fretboard brew to the first ever sold out
Mainstage concert, last season was truly one of many firsts!
Your passion and curiosity continued to support the CCO's tradition of sharing the stage with
great organizations: on-stage collaborations with Taft Museum, Cincinnati Art Museum, the
incredible photography of Cincinnati artist Michael Tittel, the inaugural CCO + SCPA
Concerto Competition and a groundbreaking partnership with the Armed Forces Ticketing
Association and the Music Resource Center resulted in new works composed by MRC
students which honored heroes in our community.
Made possible through the gifts of donors and sponsors, December's biennial production of
Amahl & the Night Visitors with Madcap Puppets, Pones Inc. dancers and Xavier University
was the first chamber orchestra and opera production for nearly 200 elementary students
who attended a dress rehearsal and a Q&A with the performers.
Beyond the stage, your generosity throughout the year enables the CCO to continue making
music accessible. Last year oered many opportunities for CCO musicians to take music into
the community through programs at Cincinnati Children's Hospital and Cain Ministries in
Northside, as well as free outdoor concerts at Burnet Woods and Washington Park and
several performances in libraries across Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky.
Thank you to our donors – both new and returning – for continuing to believe in the CCO and
recognizing the value of aordable cultural and musical experiences to our community.
And thank you especially to the CCO's 2018 Board of Trustees for their vision and leadership
in another year of record growth.
We can’t wait to share 2019 with you - see you in August!

THE CINCINNATI CHAMBER ORCHESTRA BELIEVES IN
taking a lead role in teaching children about the art of music.
As arts education diminishes in the school system, it is increasingly important for
performance arts organizations to step forward and mold the next generation of
musicians and music lovers. Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra develops tomorrow’s
talent and audiences through invitations to open rehearsals, participation in question
and answer sessions with our performers and music director, complimentary
performance tickets and side-by-side musical performances.
We believe music education is important for the musically curious of all ages. That is
why we include fun and interesting facts in our concerts, whether during our
pre-concert Prelude Talks (above), music director comments delivered from the
stage, or a chance for audience members to meet the musicians following each
performance.
The Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra has an ongoing collaboration
with Music for Youth in Cincinnati (MYCincinnati), an instrumental
classical music program for children ages 7-13 located in East
Price Hill. Recognizing that MYCincinnati primarily oers large
group instruction and performances, the CCO saw the opportuni-
ty to enhance this program by providing individual and small
group instruction, giving students the chance to interact with a
working professional musician as teacher and mentor. CCO
members visit MYCincinnati for several hours each week.
In January, CCO concertmaster Celeste Golden Boyer and
music director Eckart Preu participated with the Holocaust &
Humanities Center at SCPA for Violins of Hope (right). In
May, the CCO strings and winds performed a side-by-side
concert with MYCincinnati at The Sanctuary (above). During
Summermusik, guest artists and conductors often lead
masterclasses across the Tri-State, including Christopher
O’Riley’s visit last summer to CCM and the School for
Creative & Performing Arts.

it was just great & quite memorable..”
“Summermusik is by far
our favorite musical/cultural
entertainment choice. You
never fail to amaze me.”
“We are so fortunate to have such a talented group of
musicians and the ever-buoyant Eckart Preu to offer such
novel programming in diverse venues and with
phenomenal cultural outreach.”
“People who might not ordinarily allow themselves
a ticket to the Symphony would buy tickets to Summermusik
as they are priced so fairly that one can allow
themselves a treat.”
“Not only was the music breathtaking but, even as the event
was occurring, I was fully aware that I was experiencing a unique
opportunity and each outing left me with a sense
that the hours spent attending were beyond special...”
“I would choose a CCO event over
any other arts organization in town.”
“Eckart Preu is a gem,
bringing passion and energy
to everything. The CCO has
been vivified, transformed.”

“{THE PUPPETS} are breathtaking. And they are a large part
of what makes AMAHL such a compelling experience for young
audience members.”
“An enchanting story.
Masterful music.
And, for CCO, it’s a chance to indulge in the sorts of collaborations
that have become a hallmark of their work.”
- DAVID LYMAN, Cincy Magazine
“The CCO has always been a very rewarding group for me to play in.
When I moved, I had been a member for 15 years and I was not ready
to resign. I have been willing to drive back not only for the orchestra,
but also to reconnect with friends.”
- SUSAN MAGG, CCO Second Flute
“I believe that great music belongs to EVERYONE, and I’m always excited
to find new ways to share what we do with more people. The CCO is
particularly good at reaching out to new audiences and I’m proud to be
part of an organization that makes that a priority.”
- NAT CHAITKIN, CCO Cello
“A year later and I am still so touched by the experience of getting to
touch and play a violin from the Holocaust. I think of my own violin as
an extension of my body, my best outlet of expression, owner, to hear
the sounds just under my ear that provided that person with a ‘voice’.
and to think of the comfort that very violin might have provided during
a time of such deep suering, was a profound honor I’ll never forget.”
- CELESTE GOLDEN BOYER, CCO Concertmaster
“Summermusik has grown
into the most imaginative
and entertaining three weeks
on the classical music calendar.”
- CINCINNATI ENQUIRER
“An exciting line up for diverse
and creative concert events...”
- DOWNTOWN CINCINNATI INC.
“If you still think classical
music is too stuy, stop by
one of the CCO’s Chamber
Crawl Concerts.”
- TOM CONSOLO, Movers & Makers
“Beginning his second season
as music director, Preu is
an amazing leader, whose
musicality informs every note.”
- JANELLE GELFAND,
Cincinnati Business Courier
“I encourage each and every
one to take in one or more of
the CCO oerings of o-the-
beaten-path repertory played
with classy professionalism. If
you have not yet been to one,
beware that when you come
you will be drawn back again
and again.”
- RAFAEL de ACHA,
Rafael’s Music Notes
“An inspiring performance...
Nothing was glossed over, and
every phrase had meaning... The
orchestra’s ensemble has never
been better.”
