David Wunderlich


We are thrilled to present an 18th year of the world’s best music performed by the world’s best musicians, right here in the Washington DC area! We are so grateful to our loyal fans and especially our season ticket holders. This year’s season, “Classical to Classics: 300 years of Memorable Music” includes music from Hungary, "Holiday Cheer" (includes reception), “Love at the Cinema” with Lucy Bowen McCauley’s legendary dance choreography, Julliard Virtuosi and finally, our premiere performance at the Kennedy Center’s Terrace Theatre. This warm, intimate, and opulent theatre is perfect for our season finale’ performance of “Vivaldi’s Extraordinary Four Seasons”, a Nancy Peery Marriott Discovery concert. Book your season ticket now for best value and confirmed availability!

As with the last few seasons, we will continue to provide a superb-quality view-at-home option for your convenience. This is a great benefit for ticket purchasers and for those who cannot attend in person.

We hope you will join us and experience the warm connection to NCE and to the best classical music in the world!

Wishing you good health and happiness,

David Wunderlich,
NCE Board President
