The Connecticut Grand Opera and Orchestra is a non-profit, professional opera company and orchestra founded under that name in 1993 and based in Stamford, Connecticut in the United States. By uniting several organizations including the then-Connecticut Grand Opera in Bridgeport, CT and the Stamford Chamber Orchestra under the general director and conductor Laurence Gilgore, the opera company and orchestra came together as one organization.〔(Valerie Cruice, "Opera and Orchestra in Merger Con Brio", ''The New York Times, 20 September 1992 ) Retrieved 29 January 2012〕〔("Forty-five minutes to Broadway. . ." on OperaOnline.us ) Retrieved 29 January 2012〕 The amalgamated company is often referred to as CGO&O.
