The Mercantile Library

Catacoustic collaborates with wildly successful concert:nova in a program that features music for new and old instruments based on text by Shakespeare.

concert:nova is a world-class ensemble that reshapes the musical experience with engaging, adventurous and multi-dimensional performances. They have quickly established a reputation in Cincinnati as a fresh and dynamic chamber group that blends together traditional and contemporary with a visual twist to explore a modern, kinetic & powerful new concert experience.

One caveat: because concert:nova and Catacoustic both have a sizable fan base, be sure to get your tickets as soon as possible as this concert will sell out quickly!
