The New York Philharmonic returns to Carnegie Hall with Adolphus Hailstork’s rousing portrait of a bustling port city, a virtuoso concerto, and a symphony by a Finnish icon. John Adams’s Saxophone Concerto—with Branford Marsalis—has its share of jazz influences, while also highlighting the soloist’s agility and the instrument’s sweetly lyrical voice. Sibelius often looked to the natural splendor of his homeland, expressing this most beautifully in the famous “swan hymn” in his Fifth Symphony’s last movement, a breathtaking depiction of 16 swans in full flight.
