Roberto Castro | 
Conductor 

Founded in sound. Formed in spirit. The Mendelssohn Chamber Orchestra is a newly formed ensemble dedicated to clarity, dialogue, and the enduring beauty of chamber and symphonic music. Founded in Sarasota, Florida, by conductor Roberto Castro, the MCO brings together professional musicians who share a vision: to make music that is honest, refined, and alive in the moment. Inspired by European tradition and Sarasota’s vibrant cultural life, the orchestra explores repertoire from Bach to modern, always seeking what speaks — not only in the notes, but between them. This is chamber music with purpose. This is the Mendelssohn Chamber Orchestra.
