The Orchestra Ensemble Kanazawa (オーケストラ・アンサンブル金沢) is a professional chamber orchestra founded in November 1988 in Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan at the initiative of Hiroyuki Iwaki, who was also its first music director. Michiyoshi Inoue took up the position when Iwaki died in 2006. OEK was the first multinational chamber orchestra in Japan, and is still one of the youngest orchestras in the country. Their recording of Schnittke’s Concerto Grosso and Bizet/Shchedrin’s Carmen Suite in 1992 received the Japan Record Academy Award.
