Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg and the New Century Chamber Orchestra opened their second season together Thursday night with a program of old works in new guises. The notes themselves, by Bach and Mussorgsky, were so familiar that a listener could practically sing along. ...

Anyone who has never attended a NCCO concert does not know what they are missing. This is a local treasure I will never miss, and I keep spreading the word.

The opening concert was a fabulous kickoff for the 2009-2010 series, definitely up to the incredibly high standards of the NCCO. The reviewer did not mention one effect in "Pictures" that ... Read Moreimpressed me the most: in Catacombs, the uncanny sound of "low brass" from the cello and viola bowing near the bridge (as far as I could tell) -- a very imaginative and appropriate effect. Most of all, I love to watch Nadja moving with the music and "being one" with her instrument. The NCCO performances reach a level beyond entertainment to a "peak experience". Everybody I spoke to after the concert was thrilled.

I agree. Every time I leave an NCCO concert I literally feel sorry for anyone who was not there. I'm bringing friends with me for the rest of the season. I never miss a chance now to bring both my sons, 9 and 12.
