The Gateways Music Festival Orchestra returns to Carnegie Hall following its remarkable 2022 debut that featured pianist Jon Batiste performing an original world premiere. This extraordinary ensemble, which comprises musicians from many of the nation’s top orchestras and conservatory faculties, showcases the contributions of classical musicians of African descent—including composers and performers both past and present. Led by its highly versatile conductor Anthony Parnther, the orchestra presents a brand-new program in this matinee concert with a soon-to-be-announced guest artist.
