It was back in 2006 when the 19-year-old Lithuanian composer Gediminas Gelgotas came up with an idea to bring together string players, who would perform his music and transmit his artistic visions into reality. Now, 16 years later, this embodiment of ‘one-artist-vision’, called the New Ideas Chamber Orchestra NICO, amazes the audience with their alluring, captivating, and original music performances and brings composer’s music to the leading classical and contemporary music venues.
While listening to NICO, you may want to turn inward and meditate, or just get up and dance – the effect is mesmerizing, and the result is inspiring to all ages. The uniqueness of the NICO concept is highly determined by Gelgotas’ musical language itself, in which the classical music idiom is mixed with light hints and influences of popular music.
