NY Phil: Brahms, Stravinsky & Jessie Montgomery
About the Event
Experience the sublime melodies of classical greats Johannes Brahms, Igor Fyodorovich Stravinsky, and Jessie Montgomery in the iconic and globally acclaimed David Geffen Hall in New York. Stravinsky’s vibrant Violin Concerto will be masterfully interpreted by Patricia Kopatchinskaja, described by The New York Times as a performer with “rare expressive energy.” It took Brahms more than two decades to complete his First Symphony, a piece marked by its solemn, tempestuous, quiet, and valiant passages, affirming Brahms’ definitive mastery in the symphonic realm. The evening begins with Jakub Hrůša conducting the much‐awaited premiere of Jessie Montgomery’s Project 19.
