Wagner’s thrilling music resounds in Kodak Hall! Andreas Delfs leads favorite selections from “The Ring of the Nibelung,” as arranged into a symphonic suite by Lorin Maazel. Plus, an RPO Centennial commission by composer David Hertzberg opens the concert—a symphonic monodrama inspired by the life and death of America’s premier picture-man, George Eastman.

Wagner Without Words and The Life Of George Eastman!

Join us for "Mahler Grooves", a one-night-only concert acquainting New Yorkers with Gustav Mahler — one of classical music’s most revered composers, tenth Music Director of the New York Philharmonic, and rider of the New York City subway. Through "Songs of a Wayfarer" baritone Roderick Williams becomes a young man mourning the loss of his beloved. And the Philharmonic performs Mahler’s exhilarating First Symphony and a World Premiere by the “utterly original” <em>(The New York Times)</em> composer David Hertzberg. Part of "Mahler’s New York", two weeks celebrating the great composer and former New York Philharmonic Music Director.
