The 19-member string ensemble includes San Francisco Bay Area musicians and those who travel from across the U.S. and Europe to perform together. Musical decisions are made collaboratively, resulting in an enhanced level of commitment from the musicians to concerts of remarkable precision, passion, and power. In the 2017-2018 season, British violinist, activist, author, and Deutsche Grammophon recording artist Daniel Hope became New Centurys fourth Music Director and Concertmaster. Hope is preceded by previous music directors Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg (2008-2017), Krista Bennion Feeney (1999-2006) and Stuart Canin (1992-1999).In addition to performing classic pieces of chamber orchestra repertoire, New Century commissions important new works, breathes newlife into rarely heard jewels of the past, and performs world premieres. Through the Featured Composer program, the orchestra commissions composers to write new works, with the goals of expanding chamber orchestra repertoire and providing audiences with a deeper understanding of todays living composers. The orchestra provides insight into the breadth of the Featured Composers work by performing a variety of pieces by the composer throughout the season.Beyond regular season concerts in the San Francisco Bay Area, New Century has toured nationally, with 2011 performances in the Midwest, East Coast, and Southern California garnered record-breaking audiences and national critical acclaim. In January and February 2013, New Century followed with a highly successful eight-state national tour, the largest and most ambitious artistic undertaking in the organizations history. In addition to touring efforts, New Centurys national footprint has also continued to grow with a rapidly increasing national radio presence. The ensemble has been broadcast over 30 times on American Public Medias Performance Today, with each broadcast heard on 260 radio stations across the country.The orchestra has released seven compact discs. The most recent, From A to Z: 21st Century Concertos, is a compilation of four of New Centurys live world premiere performances of its newly commissioned works by William Bolcom, Ellen Taaffe Zwilich, Clarice Assad and Michael Daugherty. The recording was released in May 2014 on the NSS Music label. 921121 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true true true false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false true 25 0 true 54 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 12 10 true false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X X Jenny Chisholm 4152549511 1668 Bush Street San Francisco CA 94109 Mark Salkind President 3.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Lucinda Lee Katz Vice President 3.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Carolyn Spitz Treasurer 3.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Joel Kaufmann Secretary 3.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Alan Benaroya Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mary Harden Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 John Gambs Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Paula Gambs Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mari Kawawa Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Shira Lee Katz Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sue Larson Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Caroline Wood Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Philip Wilder Exec Director 40.00 0.00 X 95481 0 1910 95481 1910 0 false false false 0 55000 1173425 213261 1228425 Ticket sales/subscription 175979 175979 175979 717 717 0 0 0 0 246181 105377 140804 0 0 Other Income 6032 6032 6032 1551957 182011 717 0 0 0 0 95481 28644 28644 38193 0 435281 245388 113674 76219 6465 1593 2584 2288 42373 25115 9567 7691 51506 30675 11547 9284 0 0 14226 14226 0 0 0 0 57309 57309 10797 10797 6683 3450 1792 1441 0 105036 54230 28164 22642 0 0 0 0 0 0 8306 4288 2227 1791 Guest artists/artistic staff 395093 395093 Production/performance costs 51016 51016 Box office fees 15655 15655 Miscellaneous 13035 1722 10553 760 24349 6943 10949 6457 1332611 921121 244724 166766 623868 764235 0 80000 0 0 0 0 0 52020 52286 29457 29457 0 0 0 0 0 0 675888 896521 4149 18619 108163 67010 12270 10166 124582 95795 X 295010 292913 256296 507813 551306 800726 675888 896521 X 219346 30074 X false true X true false X 1043100 938049 1005779 867684 1228425 5083037 492500 441420 350499 353189 422160 2059768 0 0 0 1535600 1379469 1356278 1220873 1650585 7142805 140925 294268 164439 191025 254340 1044997 56498 199322 522313 769572 1547705 140925 350766 363761 713338 1023912 2592702 4550103 1250 23 86 79 717 2155 0 1250 23 86 79 717 2155 0 3868 10116 6845 6032 26861 1536850 1383360 1366480 1227797 1657334 7171821 0.63440 0.74240 0.00030 0.00320 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 29457 29457 Accrued payroll liabilities 10166 10166 X 1551957 1551957 1551957 1332611 1332611 1332611 Part X : FIN48 Footnote Income TaxesFinancial statement presentation follows the recommendations of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, NCCO is required to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by NCCO and requires a two-step process that separates recognition from measurement. The first step is determining whether a tax position has met the recognition threshold; the second step is measuring a tax position that meets the recognition threshold. Management believes that NCCO has adequately evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of August 31, 2017, NCCO does not have any uncertain tax positions for which a reserve or an accrual for a tax liability would be necessary.NCCO has received notification from the Internal Revenue Service and the State of California that it qualifies for tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 23701d of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. The exemptions are subject to periodic review by the federal and state taxing authorities and management is confident that NCCO continues to satisfy all federal and state statutes in order to qualify for continued tax exemption status. NCCO may periodically receive unrelated business income requiring NCCO to file separate tax returns under federal and state statutes. Under such conditions, NCCO will calculate, accrue and remit the applicable taxes.
