The Bijou Orchestra

Unlike any other ensemble in the country, the Bijou Orchestra is modeled on the orchestras found in America’s theaters in the first part of the 20th century. Small and versatile, it is composed of artists selected from the ranks of symphony orchestras, opera houses and university faculties. The Orchestra performs both in Bay City and beyond, featuring a vast repertoire ranging from 19th century European and American dance and concert music to swing, bluegrass, jazz and klezmer styles.
