Chicago Classical Review highlighted CAIC’s 2019 Collaborative Works Festival, which Nick curated and performed in this past September, as Best Programming of the year:

The Collaborative Works Festival’s venturesome fall lineup was devoted entirely to living composers, moving in three programs from Chicago women to a broader American program and international composers. This is the kind of thoughtful, intelligent programming that should be the model in a city like Chicago and sadly isn’t.
