The band performed at various Korean community events such as bergenPAC Dream Stage, and in 2014 the band presented their first concert at Church of the Madonna in Fort Lee, NJ.

The band covers legendary Korean rock and American rock tunes from the 70’s and the 80’s.

The Camerata Youth Ensemble, playfully dubbed “Camerata Kids,” is a project directed by the Music Director of Camerata Virtuosi himself, Byung-Hyun Rhee. Designed to foster a love of music and develop live performance skills, the talented group of young musicians get opportunities to play side-by-side with the full Camerata Virtuosi orchestra. It is also a chance for the members to make a positive social impact in their community, as there are multiple outreach events. In August 2013, The Camerata Youth Ensemble was approved to give out the prestigious Presidential Volunteer Service Award to participants who contribute 75 or more hours to Camerata Kids.
