About

Since its successful inaugural concert in 2007 in New York City, Nunc has presented
distinctively curated programs and given celebrated world and United States premieres by composers including Stefano Gervasoni, Patricia Alessandrini, David Rakowski, Michael Hersch, Ileana Perez Velasquez, Diego Tedesco, David Fulmer, Jonathan Dawe, and Ralph Shapey. In addition to self-producing events at diverse venues in New York, Nunc has performed as guest ensemble at National Sawdust in Brooklyn, the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires, the Contempo series at University of Chicago, the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton University, Brooklyn Academy of Music, Shepherd School of Music at Rice University, Williams College, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Vanderbilt University in Nashville and Peabody Institute in Baltimore.

Comprising a flexible assemblage of performers and composers, Nunc is a programming and concert-producing organization, dedicated to presenting musical innovations, interpretations, and compositional contributions of our time. Nunc was begun by artistic director and violinist Miranda Cuckson as an ad hoc concert series called Transit Circle (a kind of telescope) and renamed and incorporated as a 501c3 not-for-profit in 2012. Nunc is a Latin word for “now”, thus encompassing the past and the present in one knobby syllable.
