The New York Chamber Virtuosi is an orchestra and chamber music organization based in New York City. It was founded by clarinetist and composer Jessica Sibelman in 2009. [1]
According to its mission statement, the NYCV seeks to combine "New York's energetic young professionals with a fresh approach to breaking down musical boundaries between the performer and audience. While keeping true to the classic orchestra, The NYCV looks to combine orchestral literature with a twist, to make classical music more accessible to a growing, diverse public." [2]
The NYCV has presented orchestral music performances in a variety of settings, including prominent venues such as Carnegie Hall's Zankel Hall [3] and Merkin Hall in New York City. [4] [5] [6] Through its Soiree Series, the NYCV has performed at the Gershwin Hotel, [7] assorted arts spaces in New York and New Jersey, and educational institutions. [8]
Finally, the NYCV has presented a series of educational workshops for adults and children through its Outreach Series [9] and Family Concert [10] programs.
