Live in Concert, Inc., a new 501(c)(3) non-profit based in Western Massachusetts, is dedicated to expanding the audience for new music by presenting works by living composers in collaboration with other artistic media, including dance, poetry, film, and computer-assisted technologies.

Live in Concert, Inc. made its debut presentation in 2006-07 with Itasca and the concert version of Our American Cousin. The organization supported the staged version

of the opera in 2008.

The group recently received a generous grant from the New England Foundation for the Arts and Meet The Composer for educational outreach activities surrounding these performances.

Subsequent productions will showcase a variety of collaborative artistic teams as part of an ongoing series of multimedia concerts throughout Western MA and greater New England.
