About North/South Consonance

Since 1980, North/South Consonance has garnered widespread praise for its eloquent performances of music by composers of our time. Under the leadership of Max Lifchitz, its founder and director, this adventurous ensemble has brought to the attention of the New York public over 750 different works by composers from every corner of the world.

The press has favorably acknowledged the many attractive CD albums issued by North/South Recordings. “Enthusiastic performances...enough to express the boiling power of the music” is how The Philadelphia Inquirer greeted In the Receding Mist (N/S R No. 1003). Robert Croan, writing for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, referred to the same album as “an excellent disc.” The Washington Post declared that Of Bondage and Freedom (N/S R No. 1004) contains “intriguing instrumental works, works that span the emotions from pain to ecstasy.” Fanfare Magazine remarked as follows on the recently released Carnaval/Carnival (N/S R 1028): “Recorded within days of the September 11 attack, the performances all glow.”
