Under the leadership of Artistic Director Derek Bermel and Music Director George Manahan, American Composers Orchestra's (ACO) 2014-2015 season strengthens the orchestra's commitment to serve as a catalyst for the creation of new orchestral music, providing unprecedented opportunities for American composers to create new work and for audiences to discover it.

When the mental health care system is ineffective or expensive, more and more families are forced to care for their mentally ill children and relatives. Even though the price of treatment can be exorbitant, some families pay with the highest currency of all: their lives. 'A Voice out of Nowhere: Inside the mind of a mass murderer' recounts the tragic case of Bruce Blackman, a young man with undiagnosed schizophrenia who slaughtered his family when voices told him to 'save the world.' Recently, Katie Nichols of Tennessee stabbed her 61-year old mother, believing her mother was the ringleader of a satanic cult. In November, shortly after being released from an emergency mental health custody order, Senator Creigh Deeds' son Gus tried to kill his father by stabbing him repeatedly in the head and neck, then killed himself. In October, Chen Ming-dong, a Chinese immigrant, was taken in by his cousin's family after he'd lost his job and had nowhere to stay. He murdered the wife and her four children in a gruesome act of violence after he was noted to be 'acting strange' and brandishing a knife.
