Host

Last year we partnered up with New Century Chamber Orchestra (NCCO) for a portion of their season, and after receiving an overwhelming positive response from our Groupmuse community, we're thrilled to be teaming up with them yet again for the 2024-25 season!

Here's what they have to say about the program, which features a number of extraordinary talented artists and is sure to blow your socks off!:

"Praised by The New York Times as “one of the most admired pianists of his generation,” Inon Barnatan joins New Century for a program of music written to distract from life’s challenges. Experience C.P.E. Bach's dramatic third keyboard concerto, blending melancholy with bursts of impeccable brilliance. Rich with iconic musical allusions, Dmitri Shostakovich’s delightfully madcap first piano concerto also features a solo trumpet, performed by Brandon Ridenour from the American Brass Quintet, which adds punctuation to the vibrant score. Bela Bartók's Divertimento, with its jubilant Hungarian folk rhythms, reflects a sunny interlude in Switzerland before the composer’s relocation to the U.S. This captivating musical adventure, full of witty melodies and unexpected twists, will brighten your spirits during the darkest time of the year."

We've got a limited number of tickets for 1/3 the price!! You can't beat that. So get yours before they fly!

Groupmusers are instructed to pick up their tickets at Will Call prior to the performance.
