Each CIO performance brings together 15-25 diverse musicians who have a one-hour open rehearsal open to the public in which conductors work with the group on themes, melodies from the worlds folk traditions, and compositions written by legendary improvisers associated with CMS. Following the open rehearsal the orchestra performs fully realized versions of the same compositions. |

Each workshop typically features a Guiding Artist or multiple Guiding Artists and 18-25 participants.
