This article was recently accepted through AfC, but it lacks significant coverage in reliable sources. The 4 references in the article are only mentions in passing, and do not support any of the main claims of notability for the subject. A Google search turns up little except mentions of an organization by the same name in the U.S. I believe this fails WP:NORG. Bradv🍁 15:15, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Bradv:, thank you for your input! Presently the article might be lacking significant coverage in regards to the sources. However, it is worth including for the following reasons. As it was mentioned, there is already a wikipedia article about another orchestra with nearly the same name - "Concord Chamber Orchestra" from Wisconsin. That article has only one source - their official website. Google search first shows the numerous videos and images from Concord Orchestra discussed here and afterwords the wikipedia article about Concord Chamber Orchestra. This might create a confusion. That is why I believe there should be a mention that they are two different orchestras. I have added this information into the article about Concord Orchestra - "not to be mistaken with Concord Chamber Orchestra". Moreover, Concord Orchestra has concerts in Europe (Germany) in 2019 as it says on their website and European audience might be looking for information about it.

  • Keep. But needs more references. Google search and news search brings up additional sources.--AfPEN (talk) 14:20, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    AfPEN, can you provide an example? I couldn't find any significant coverage, which is why I nominated this. Bradv🍁 18:21, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete the sources in the article and what I can find elsewhere are press releases, passing mentions or otherwise unreliable and do not contribute to notability. In fact, I'd argue that what I did find could potentially support an article on a different Concord Orchestra, just not this one. Praxidicae (talk) 13:49, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete— I think this person not eligible to notability and i couldn't find any significant news coverage. Need more reference if keep this article an a also improve this article.Swe123123 (talk) 11:57, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. As I was mentioning before the discussed Concord Orchestra has concerts in Europe. See the link. It also has many recent and older videos and images that come up in Google Search. I believe that the visual content online is just as important as the written one especially when it comes to the music and performing arts. The orchestra has been existed for a few years already. The article is not created to promote a fresh act but to make it clear for the foreign audience where this orchestra comes from. I strongly believe that this article has all the chances to be improved if it stays here. It is difficult to get foreign sources before a foreign tour but there is more to come in 2019.
