NOCCO, Seattle's conductorless chamber orchestra (which Tori Parker, Blayne Barnes, Eli Weinberger and I founded in 2014) has an awesome program coming up: Bartok, Barber and Beethoven. We're so enchanted with Jamie Jordan, soprano extraordinaire, who will sing Samuel Barber's Knoxville: Summer of 1915 with us. Then we're digging into Bartok's Divertimento for Strings and the fantastic Beethoven First Symphony. It is such a cool workplace: all these musicians bring their talent, wisdom and experience to our rehearsals and there is this steady buzzing of participation throughout the ensemble - folks working things out within a section or talking to a different part of the orchestra about how to bring the music alive and make it all cook! It is so different from a group with a conductor. I'm in heaven. Come check us out! We want to see you! Tickets are available at NOCCO's website.
