"NOW... imports a catchy inflection to classical forms... Striking a balance between the old and the new has rarely sounded this good." –Newsweek
With a unique instrumentation of flute, clarinet, electric guitar, double bass, and piano, the ensemble brings a fresh sound and a new perspective to the classical tradition, infused with the musical influences that reflect the diverse backgrounds of its members.
