DCINY Proudly Announces Plans for 2010

Distinguished Concerts International New York is putting together an exciting and adventurous season of concerts at New York's most prestigious venues, including Carnegie Hall, Avery Fisher Hall, and Alice Tully Hall.

The season will be spiced up by numerous premieres and debuts, including the New York Premiere of Bob Chilcott's newest work, Requiem. The concert, scheduled for early spring 2010, will also feature Mr. Chilcott making his debut with DCINY as the conductor of music for children, including some of his own compositions. In addition to leading Requiem, Mr. Chilcott will conduct music for children's choirs.

Returning guest conductors include Richard Weymuth, Hank Dahlman, and Timothy Seelig. Other invited guest conductors are Lynn Gackle, Vance George, Donald Kendrick, James Meaders, Milburn Price, Russell Robinson, and Timothy Sharp. Robert Demaree, who has been selected to participate in DCINY's Emerging Conductors Program, will make his New York conducting debut.
