The last of Joan Tower's Fanfares, which have marked the entire season of the Orchestre de Paris, resounds as a prelude to Dvořák's virtuoso Concerto, before Tchaikovsky, with his Symphony No.5, entrusts the orchestra with the secret book of an idealistic, anguished soul.

Few ensembles embody elegance quite like the Academy of St Martin in the Fields. Founded in London in 1958 by Sir Neville Marriner, the Academy has become one of the world’s most admired chamber orchestras, acclaimed for its clarity of sound and stylish performances. Today, the group thrives under the leadership of Joshua Bell, who appears both as director and violin soloist.

Bell takes center stage in Saint-Saëns’ Violin Concerto No. 3, a brilliant and lyrical work originally written for the virtuoso Pablo de Sarasate. The concerto combines sweeping Romantic melodies with dazzling passages for the soloist — the perfect vehicle for Bell’s radiant tone and expressive artistry.

"I am extremely happy, it went very quickly," wrote Antonín Dvořák under the heading of his 12th String Quartet, the sketch of which he completed in just a few days. The natural idyll of rural Spillville inspired him so deeply during his stay in the USA that the composition came easily. Along with his Ninth Symphony, "From the New World," which was also written in America, this string quartet is one of his most famous works. Dvořák's soulful chamber music provides a positive moment of calm in the Alinde Quintet's otherwise melancholic program: in arrangements for wind quintet, the up-and-coming Czech ensemble explores the emotional complexity of Josef Suk's elegiac, pleading meditation, Pēteris Vask's composition "For a Deceased Friend," and Shostakovich's plaintive Eighth String Quartet.

„The 'Concert Românesc' reflects my deep love for Romanian folk music and Romanian-speaking culture as such. The piece was immediately banned and only performed many decades later,“ says Ligeti about his 1951 work, which was banned at the time due to some dissonances that were considered undesirable.

The Knights join forces with mandolinist, composer, and singer Chris Thile in an exploration of American music, old and new (and a little Bach). Thile’s new work, a Carnegie Hall co-commission, will feature his brilliant songwriting and storytelling, instrumental virtuosity, and ever-present sense of humor. Thile also joins The Knights to sing a version of Caroline Shaw's exquisite and poetic meditation on the nature of a rose. Dvorak's famed “American” Quartet is re-imagined through the lens of violinist and composer Curtis Stewart as a chamber orchestra, folk-inspired jam session, and Colin Jacobsen's Sheriff's Freud brings together the world of Dvorak - in some ways a founding figure in the development of American music - with bluegrass idioms. And finally, some Bach. Why? Because Bach is always a good idea...
