Orchestra of St. Luke's
Three captivating programs by the Orchestra of St. Luke’s prove that this “first-rate ensemble” (New York Times) is one of New York’s treasures. Pulitzer Prize–winning American composer John Adams leads the orchestra and soprano Dawn Upshaw in his nativity oratorio El Niño (The Child). Former St. Luke’s music director Sir Roger Norrington, known for his strict adherence to Beethoven’s original tempos and score markings, leads the orchestra in a performance of Beethoven’s ninth symphony.
