Chamber Orchestra of Europe

The Chamber Orchestra of Europe (COE), established in 1981, is an orchestra whose office is based in London. The orchestra comprises about 60 members from across Europe. The players pursue parallel careers as international soloists, members of chamber groups and as tutors and teachers of music. The orchestra receives substantial support from the Gatsby Charitable Foundation, the Underwood Trust and a number of other Friends; they have no single home resident hall and no appointed resident conductor. The orchestra is a registered charity under English law.
