New England Conservatory’s Winter/Spring 2024 performance season will take audiences on a musical odyssey across genres and time, ensuring a captivating fusion of classics and contemporary selections. The lineup promises an enriching and diverse experience while showcasing the range and innovation of the conservatory’s students and faculty.
Noteworthy highlights in the upcoming season include the 7th Annual Coretta Scott King Tribute Concert on February 26, curated by NEC’s Black Student Union. The yearly event pays homage to one of NEC’s most notable graduates, the trailblazing activist and soprano Coretta Scott King ’54, ’71 Hon. DM. The celebration marks the 70th anniversary of her graduation, showcasing the profound impact of her studies in music education and voice at NEC.
In addition, the Contemporary Musical Arts (CMA) department, under the artistic direction of faculty member Lautaro Mantilla, will explore the iconic songs of David Bowie that were produced with Brian Eno. This immersive experience, scheduled for April 17 on the Jordan Hall stage, delves into Bowie’s transformative influence on pop culture, musical styles, gender, sexuality, social justice, protest, and fashion.
On February 5 and 7, opera students Josie Larsen ’23 MM, ’25 AD, Hyungjin Son ’24 MM, Shiyu Zhou ’24 MM, MinSun Im ’24 GD, Hyungjin Son ’24 MM, Hengzuo Yan ’25 MM, Zizhao Wang ’18, ’20 MM, ’21 GD, and Carlos Arcos ’23 MM, ’25 GD will join the NEC Philharmonia for a thrilling rendition of Giacomo Puccini’s La bohème. In this semi-staged of the opera, audiences will be immersed in the captivating beauty of NEC vocalists complemented by a full orchestra.

Heading off campus to Cambridge’s famed Regattabar Jazz Club, NEC Jazz Orchestra will play selections including George Russell’s “Ezzthetic” and Jazz Department Co-Chair Ken Schaphorst’s “Take Back the Country.” Featuring founding CMA department chair Ran Blake on piano and Dominique Eade ’82, ’89 AD on voice, the Ken Schaphorst Big Band will also perform Blake’s “Memphis” and Schaphorst’s “Mbira” during the February 5 performance.

The event will explore the emotional depth of Jackson’s soulful gospel in contrast to the cool jazz stylings embraced by Connor, creating a dynamic musical tapestry.
Virtuosic young pianist and first-year NEC student Yunchan Lim will make his debut with the Boston Symphony Orchestra on February 15, performing Rachmaninoff’s Concerto No.3—the same piece Lim performed during the final round of 2022’s Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, securing his place as the youngest person ever to win gold at the prestigious competition and garnering more than 13 million YouTube views.
Directed by Donald Palma, the NEC Chamber Orchestra presents a dynamic program on February 28 featuring Philip Herbert’s poignant “Elegy,” Mozart’s lively Divertimento No. 11, and Béla Bartók’s rhythmically rich “Divertimento.” This performance at Jordan Hall showcases the exceptional talent of NEC’s conductorless orchestra, which inspired the formation of the critically acclaimed A Far Cry.
On March 13, NEC Symphony, under the baton of Hugh Wolff, will explore topics of censorship, the #MeToo movement, and response to violence against Black Americans through a repertoire that endeavors to speak truth to power, including Reena Esmail’s “RE|Member,” Joel Thompson’s “An Act of Resistance,” and Dmitri Shostakovich’s Symphony no. 5.
Rounding out the season’s highlights are birthday celebrations for two musical greats. On February 1, pianist Jason Moran and NEC students ranging from soloists to large ensembles will celebrate the 125th birthday of jazz icon Duke Ellington.

NEC Jazz Orchestra: The Music of Anna Webber and Angela Morris
Thu, February 29, 2024 | 7:30pm | Jordan Hall
In 2015, Anna Webber and Angela Morris brought together their arsenal of skills as composers-performers-conductors to form the Webber/Morris Big Band, an ensemble of eighteen stellar New York improvisers who bring their combined artistic vision into reality. Their debut album, Both Are True, was named as one of the top 10 jazz albums of 2020 by the New York Times. Their music, though scored for traditional jazz big band, is rooted in minimalism, noise, pop, and the sounds of today. Integrating improvisation and composed material in unorthodox ways and using extra-musical sources – such as poetry or mathematics – here the traditional big band sound mutates into something unpredictable and exciting. In this concert at Jordan Hall, Webber and Morris will conduct the NEC Jazz Orchestra playing the repertoire of the Webber/Morris Big Band. Webber serves as Co-chair of NEC’s Jazz Studies Department along with Ken Schaphorst.

NEC Contemporary Musical Arts: The Music of David Bowie
Wed, April 17, 2024 | 7:30pm | Jordan Hall
For 50 years, David Bowie created a body of work that expanded the boundaries of pop culture, musical styles, gender, sexuality, social justice, protest, and fashion. In a unique way, Bowie’s music is shocking and yet very familiar, glamorous and yet tasteless, peaceful and yet dynamic and violent, joyful and yet horrific and confusing. In his Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction speech, David Byrne described David Bowie as “a shrink and a priest who welcomes us to a brave new world.”
By re-imagining the music of his collaboration with Producer Brian Eno (1977-1979), working on re-compositions of Bowie’s more iconic songs, and original compositions inspired by these bodies of work, the CMA Department will pay tribute to one of the most influential artists of our generation and will showcase this powerful legacy. This program is curated by NEC faculty member Lautaro Mantilla.
“I always had a repulsive need to be something more than a human. I don’t know where I’m going from here, but I promise it won’t be boring.” – David Bowie
