Carnegie Hall Presents

The Philadelphia Orchestra

Yannick Nézet-Séguin brings his storied ensemble to Carnegie Hall to capture some of the most emotionally charged moments found in the orchestral repertoire, including the visceral punch of Beethoven’s “Eroica” Symphony, the self-destructive obsession of Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique, and the chilling transfiguration of Strauss’s Metamorphosen. The orchestra is also joined by virtuosic soloists Hélène Grimaud, Truls Mørk, and Lisa Batiashvili to perform stirring concertos by Brahms, Shostakovich, and Bartók, respectively.
