Now in its 32nd season, Newton Choral Society, thanks to the inspiring
musicianship and committed leadership of Music Director David Carrier, has
developed its position as a premier metropolitan chorus presenting high
quality performances, including both beloved masterpieces and the new works we
frequently commission. NCS is distinguished by the value it places on
educational outreach as well as musical excellence. In addition, the chorus
takes pride in its frequent collaborations with prestigious soloists and
orchestras (among these the Boston Philharmonic, the New Philharmonia, and the
Civic Symphony of Boston). Recently, NCS has sung at Symphony Hall in Boston,
and Carnegie Hall in New York.
