Welcome to North/South Consonance's thirty-third consecutive season.

In a culture overwhelmed by mere entertainment, North/South concerts celebrate the remarkable spectrum of artistic voices among us, while upholding an all-too-rare commitment to artistic discovery and innovation. Our free-admission concerts performed by first-rate artists focus on emerging and established composers whose works, often new to New York, always stimulate, challenge and excite.

North/South's ever-expanding compact disc catalogue features expert performances of significant compositions, some written especially for the North/South Chamber Orchestra. These albums bring the music of composers we champion to an international audience and the convenience of your home.

You, the listener, are an integral part of our dynamism. I encourage you to share North/South Consonance concert experiences with your family and friends.

And please, join our efforts to bring contemporary music from throughout the Americas and the world to the attention of New York City audiences. Your tax-deductible contribution will enable us to advance vigorously into the next 33 years of musical innovation.

I hope to greet you in person at one of our upcoming concerts.

—Max Lifchitz, Founder & Director

On Thursday evening June 6 at 8 PM, members of the North/South Chamber Orchestra present New York premieres of works by Zosha Di Castri, Daniel Kessner, Mei-Fang Lin and Jonathan Russell. The composers will introduce their works to the audience. Concert Details.
