Orchestra in New York

Gustavo Dudamel conducts Prokofiev’s Fifth, John Adams, and Zosha Di Castri. Program: John Adams: On the Transmigration of Souls; Zosha Di Castri: Invisible House (World Premiere–New York Philharmonic Co-Commission with the Los Angeles Philharmonic); Prokofiev: Symphony No. 5 Performers: Gustavo Dudamel (Conductor); New York Philharmonic Chorus | Malcolm J. Merriweather, Chorus Director (Chorus); Brooklyn Youth Chorus | Dianne Berkun Menaker, Chorus Director (Chorus)

Gustavo Dudamel opens the Orchestra’s subscription season. Prokofiev’s Symphony No. 5 — which marked Gustavo’s Philharmonic debut — glorifies the grandeur of the human spirit. The concert opens with John Adams’s On the Transmigration of Souls, co-commissioned by the Philharmonic, the haunting reflection on the lives lost and changed by the September 11 attacks, which won a Pulitzer Prize and three Grammy Awards. Zosha Di Castri's Invisible House, inspired by the composer's Ukrainian heritage through folk song melodies, poems by Ilya Kaminsky, and her own great-grandfather’s life, demonstrates art's essential value in troubled times. Encore Reception We will host a post-concert Encore reception with Philharmonic musicians and guest artists following the September 19 performance. This is a benefit for donors at the Supporting Patron level and above. With questions or to RSVP, contact membership@nyphil.org .
