We capped our 20th anniversary season with an epic performance of David Del Tredici's madcap masterpiece Child Alice, followed by a successful fundraiser to create the first-ever commercial recording of the complete cycle. Thank you to everyone who supported us by attending, donating, and cheering us on!

Sweeping emotion, fantastical imagination and unabashed neo-Romanticism unite in this 20th century orchestral masterpiece…Check out our Kickstarter to learn more about Child Alice and read about our rewards (including BMOP tickets and Child Alice CDs). Thank you for your help!

BMOP/sound honors the creative spirit of David Stock (1939-2015) with three intriguing, quirky, charming musical collaborations. Featuring the stylings of Andrés Cárdenes, violin, Alex Klein, oboes, and Lisa Pegher, percussion.

"The orchestra has become one of the most artistically valuable in the
country for its support of music either new or so woefully neglected that it might as well be," writes David Allen. Allen recommends five BMOP/sound CDs - after all, who could pick just one!

Brown University hosts BMOP in February for open rehearsals, a performance of works by composition faculty Wang Lu, Eric Nathan and Joseph Butch Rovan and a Music Now lecture by Gil Rose. We return to campus in April to offer graduate and undergraduate students the rare chance to record their own works with a professional orchestra.

Featuring the crystalline voices of celebrated vocalists and Boston's own Lorelei Ensemble, Kati Agócs draws on a multicultural spiritual heritage in five works that weave together tradition, poetry, and devotion in unique and often ravishingly beautiful musical tapestries.

Bach is back! Transmogrified, that is. BMOP presents The New Brandenburgs, six works by Stephen Hartke, Paul Moravec, Christopher Theofanidis, Melinda Wagner, Peter Maxwell Davies, and Aaron Jay Kernis that take Bach's six groundbreaking Brandenburg Concertos as their blueprint.

Orchestral composer, DJ, curator...Mason Bates has no need of a day/night split personality: he combines traditional virtuosity and symphonic color with techno beats, electronica, and improvisation in his orchestral works. Mothership features five compositions, ranging in inspiration from oceanic depths to Pima Indian chant to a hybrid technological art of the future. Not to be missed!
