Lonely Planet review

This deservedly heralded NWS serves as a three- to four-year preparatory program for very talented musicians who've already graduated from prestigious music schools. Founded in 1987, the NWS is led by artistic director Michael Tilson Thomas, who still conducts performances for 12 weeks a year despite his national fame and fortune. There are an astonishing number of inspiring and original performances (many of which are free), held at the Lincoln Theatre.
