NORTHERN CHAMBER ORCHESTRA

The Northern Chamber Orchestra, based in Manchester, was formed in the 1960s and has established itself as one of England’s finest chamber orchestras, giving concerts and appearing in festivals throughout the British Isles. Directed from the violin by Nicholas Ward, the NCO plays a wide range of repertoire from Corelli to Stravinsky and beyond and has gained a reputation for its exciting and imaginative programmes. The members of the orchestra are distinguished chamber musicians who play as principals with other orchestras and regularly appear as soloists. With over thirty CDs to its name, the majority being for Naxos, the NCO is now known in every continent; the series of Haydn, Mozart and Mendelssohn symphonies have received outstanding reviews and their recording of Stravinsky’s
Soldier’s Tale (8.553622) was considered by BBC Radio 3’s CD Review programme to be the best English version. Their recent recording for Naxos, Boccherini Cello Concertos Nos. 9–12 (8.557589) with Raphael Wallfisch, has also received critical acclaim. The NCO is involved in an extensive education programme and gives workshops in most of the locations where they present concerts.

To commemorate the 200th anniversary of Haydn’s death, a special 34-CD Box Set of THE COMPLETE SYMPHONIES (8.503400) has been released featuring the Northern Chamber Orchestra.
