American Composers Orchestra (ACO) will premiere music by hundreds of today's top composers, and no two concerts are alike.

The American Composers Orchestra (ACO) announces an ambitious 2023/2024 season. In addition to annual performances at Carnegie Hall and a debut at New York City's brand new Perelman Performing Arts Center, ACO continues to act as a vital conduit for new voices in orchestral music through its national composer development program, EarShot: promoting diverse talent, cultivating the careers of emerging composers, and serving as the nation's first systemic program for building relationships between composers and orchestras nationwide.

Get the latest updates on the American Composers Orchestra's upcoming 2023/2024 season, featuring new works by renowned composers. Find out about the collaborations and concert series at Zankel Hall at Carnegie Hall.

First-year students weren't the only new arrivals at CIM this fall. The school also welcomed a large slate of new faculty.

Disney+ has premiered “Say It With Pride: Disney+ Celebrates Pride 365.” The variety special features Alex Newell performing 'We're All in This Together' from High School Musical, Alan Menken and Nina West performing 'Sheridan Square,' and Angelica Ross and the Trans Chorus of Los Angeles performing 'A Million Dreams.'

Participants include Alan Menken (Academy Award®-winning Disney Legend), Alex Newell (“Glee”), Angelica Ross (“Pose”), Nina West (“RuPaul’s Drag Race” and the host of the Webby Award-nominated 2021 Disney+ Pride Show), Jessica Darrow (“Encanto”), Reuby Wood (“Better Nate Than Ever”), and more.

World premiere performances are a rarity. To premiere three works in one season is a very rare privilege. A Canton Symphony Orchestra (CSO) contemporary quintet – in its typical world-class fashion – will premiere a third classical work tonight, February 6 (Today at 1:00pm) and Friday, February 7 (Friday at 7:00pm) in Cable Recital Hall at Canton's Cultural Center for the Arts on Market Avenue North. The other two world premieres this season were this past fall: A Secret Gift (Eric Benjamin) and Tuba Sonata for Strings, Piano and Tuba (Tom Lukowicz).
