ARC Ensemble
Established in 2002, the ARC Ensemble (Artists of The Royal Conservatory) has quickly become one of Canada’s leading cultural ambassadors. The group has a core membership of piano, strings, and clarinet – all the players are senior faculty members of the Conservatory’s Glenn Gould School – which is supplemented by guest artists drawn from the organisation’s most exceptional students and alumni. The Ensemble has performed in major venues throughout Canada, the United States, Europe, and Asia. It plays a leading role in unearthing repertoire that has been neglected due to political suppression or shifts in musical fashion, and its work has received unanimous acclaim from the world’s cultural press.

“… an eclectic collection of pieces , but what brings them all together is Barley’s rich, supple playing, which he varies dramatically in tone and style as he allies himself with each composer’s music across the disc’s carefully considered emotional journey. Recorded sound is so rich and detailed that it’s something of a sonic marvel in itself.”
