[Concert Review] A Boston connection with style

Now in its 10th season, the Boston Modern Orchestra Project is a vibrant presence on the city’s new music scene, a group with omnivorous musical appetites and impressive collective chops.

The group’s annual “Boston Connection” program took place Saturday night in Jordan Hall.
