The philosophy of the Arties Chamber Orchestra is to perform special arrangements for a chamber group of huge orchestral works which are not possible to perform without having the resource of a big orchestra and several rehearsals. Such music was arranged for special performances at the Society for Private Musical Performances in Vienna which was founded by Arnold Schoenberg. The Society was dedicated to performing contemporary music at the highest possible level and included big orchestral and choral works like those of Mahler and Bruckner. The prospectus read “while the Society does not presently have the means to perform them in their original cast, for the time being, they can be reproduced only as arrangements for chamber orchestra (string quintet, piano, harmonium, flute, clarinet, etc.)” .

Mezzo-soprano Yete Queiroz has appeared in concert all over France in Toulon, Marseilles, Lyon, Aix-en-Provence, Opera Comique Paris and has sung many important roles including that of Carmen. She regularly appears in oratorio and song performances and is invited to perform for important events at museums and embassies.
