Tickets are now on sale for American Composers Orchestra's (ACO) 40th Anniversary Season, under the leadership of Artistic Director Derek Bermel and Music Director George Manahan. This season includes eight world premieres by a diverse set of composers performed by ACO at Carnegie Hall and Symphony Space, and continues 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. Founded in 1977, ACO remains the only orchestra in the world dedicated exclusively to the creation, performance, preservation, and promulgation of music by American composers. To date, ACO has performed music by 800 American composers, including 350 world premieres and newly commissioned works. ACO takes its commitment to fostering new work beyond the stage in its annual Underwood New Music Readings for emerging composers, now in its 26th year in New York, and through its program EarShot, the National Orchestra Composition Discovery Network, which brings the Readings experience to orchestras across the country in partnership with American Composers Forum, the League of American Orchestras, and New Music USA.

The newest James Bond film is a nationwide event and Skyfall is no different. The most recent flick had the highest opening weekend ever (with about $90 million dollars raked in) and many are giving it Oscar buzz. That being said, each new movie in the 007 series also serves as a shared cultural experience for American men, who look to the most recent James Bond as a style guide. From his watch to his drink of choice, men know that looking like Mr. Bond isn't just a surefire way to look good; it's a certain way to feel powerful. Italsuit, manufacturer of mens suits out of Milan since 1915, helps men with this pursuit. By providing affordable, well-made Italian suits, the company makes looking like a world-class secret agent accessible for every man.
