It's well known that the Bay Area is one of the great hubs of Groupmuse activity around the country, but for the past couple years, due to the efforts of a group of committed hosts and musicians, our presence in the South Bay has been quietly expanding -- and we're ready to celebrate that with our first ever South Bay Night Out.

A Groupmuse Night Out is when a leading classical music institution provides our community with a stack of heavily discounted tickets so that we can take a field trip out of the living room and into the concert hall on the cheap! For our first outing, we'll be gathering in the First United Methodist Church in Palo Alto for an evening with the New Century Chamber Orchestra.

The NCCO is a conductor-less, collaboratively-run chamber orchestra that has, over the last 25 years, become one of the most dynamic and exciting chamber orchestras in the country. And you'll see why:

Their program starts with two new works: First, piece by composer Sally Beamis -- Seavaigers, for violin, accordion and strings. It'll be followed by Peteris Vasks' Distant Light - a concerto for violin and string orchestra.

The second half of the concert will Antonín Dvořák's enchanting and beloved Serenade for Strings in E major. A dialogue of old and new. Music making at the absolute highest level. A Night Out to remember. We hope to see you there!

Typically, these tickets run, on average, $45, but our wonderful friends at NCCO have given us a stack for only $15 -- almost 70% off! But supplies are limited, so grab yours!
