The Claremont Trio has established itself as one of the leading piano trios in the United States. They have expanded the repertoire with many commissioned works and play with “aesthetic maturity, interpretive depth, and exuberance.” (Palm Beach Daily News) Here they offer an expressive trio by Rachmaninoff, Ravel’s ravishing Trio, and join “spellbinding” Syrian American clarinetist-composer Kinan Azmeh (New Yorker) for the New York Premiere of Gravitas, inspired by Middle Eastern folk music. |

Based on the best-selling novel that inspired the iconic film, THE NOTEBOOK tells the story of Allie and Noah, both from different worlds, who share a lifetime of love despite the forces that threaten to pull them apart. “Full of butterfly-inducing highs and beautiful songs” (Entertainment Weekly), THE NOTEBOOK is a deeply moving portrait of the enduring power of love.
Chris Jones of The Chicago Tribune says THE NOTEBOOK is “absolutely gorgeous, not to be missed,” and The New York Daily News calls it “a love story for the ages.”
THE NOTEBOOK is directed by Michael Greif (Dear Evan Hansen, Next to Normal, RENT) and Schele Williams (The Wiz, Aida), and features music and lyrics by multi-platinum singer-songwriter Ingrid Michaelson, book by Bekah Brunstetter (NBC’s “This Is Us”), and choreography by Katie Spelman. |

Named one of the greatest string quartets of the last 100 years by BBC Music Magazine and “the next Guarneri Quartet” by the Chicago Tribune, the two-time Grammy-nominated Dover Quartet is one of the world’s most lauded chamber ensembles. Hailed as “meticulously balanced, technically clean-as-a-whistle and intonationally immaculate” (The Strad), the Dovers return to CMNW to kick off our 2026/27 Year-Round Season. The evening begins with Brahms’s gorgeous String Quartet No. 3, followed by American Indian composer Jerod Impichchaachaaha’ Tate’s newest string quartet orchestration of Pura Fé’s—Indigenous activist, singer-songwriter, and storyteller—Rattle Songs, and Dvorák’s joyful String Quartet No. 11 serves as a fitting finale. |

The Church of St. Ignatius Loyola presents the New York premiere of The Lily of Quito, a 40-minute sacred cantata by composer-soprano Dr. Stephanie Susberich based on the life and surviving words of St. Mariana de Jesús de Paredes, Ecuador’s seventeenth-century mystic and patron saint.
Susberich sings the title role under the direction of Scott Warren, joined by pianist Kathleen Supové, the Park Avenue Consort, and the Choir of St. Ignatius Loyola. Scored for soprano, chamber ensemble, percussion, and pipe organ, the cantata culminates in a newly composed finale with 25-voice double choir.
The program also features works by Joaquín Rodrigo and Juan Gutiérrez de Padilla, placing the contemporary cantata in dialogue with sacred music across centuries.
This program is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature. |

New York, NY — Composers Concordance presents Beat Gene Pritsker: Think Beat Bobby Flay, but replace the kitchen with a concert stage, the secret ingredients with musical challenges, and the celebrity chef with composer Gene Pritsker.
This Halloween, Composers Concordance invites composers to enter the musical arena for 'Beat Gene Pritsker', an evening of competition, surprise, audience participation, and musical mayhem.
Four composers—Charles Coleman, Ginka Mizuki, Audrey Morse, and Will Rowe—will face off against Gene in a series of musical challenges. But this isn't your ordinary composition concert. The contestants won't always know which instruments will perform their music, and as the rounds progress, the challenges get bigger, longer, and more complicated. |
