LINCOLN CENTER

David Geffen Hall
New York Philharmonic

James Gaffigan - Conductor
Jeffrey Kahane - Piano

Beethoven - Symphony No. 4
R. Strauss - Till Eulenspiegel's Merry Pranks
Andrew Norman - Split (World Premiere–New York Philharmonic Commission)


"You’ll begin the evening on the edge of your seat with the mysterious opening of Beethoven’s Fourth Symphony — which soon gives way to a spunky Allegro vivace. Also on the program: Richard Strauss’s tone poem that’s so fun it has “merry pranks” in the title, and a new piano concerto by Andrew Norman (Pulitzer Prize finalist), capturing what the composer calls the “wit, vigor, and soul” of soloist Jeffrey Kahane."
