FCO is made up of highly talented young WA musicians. "Here was a stylish performance that bristled with vitality . . . FCO is a major addition to the city's music scene." Neville Cohn, Ozartsreview.
Selected recordings of recent concerts in Fremantle Town Hall are now available on a CD :
Fremantle Chamber Orchestra
Rudolph Koelman violin • Jessica Gethin conductor
- Wieniawski : Violin Concerto No 2 (29/3/08) [ play video ]
- Saint-Saëns : Havanaise & Introduction et Rondo Capriccioso (2/5/07)
". . . Koelman's playing (in this new CD) is sinuous and impassioned, and from a purely technical view must be heard to be believed. The FCO . . . provides the kind of support one normally hears only from established continental ensembles." William Yeoman, The West Australian
