About us

Founded in 2008 by Artistic Director and conductor Johanna Hill Simpson, Music on Norway Pond brings the highest caliber artists to the beautiful village of Hancock, New Hampshire, while also creating and sustaining performance opportunities for children and adults in the surrounding region. 

We believe…

In making world-class music accessible through affordable ticket prices and engaging, one-hour concerts without intermission.

In compensating our artistic talent for the work they do.

In fostering local musical talent through the Jr. Mints, a performing arts ensemble for children aged 6-15, and The Norway Pond Festival Singers, a 30-woman chorus.
