Few artists are as synonymous with New York City as the supremely talented George Gershwin and Leonard Bernstein. Their irrepressible spirits established New York as the place where different musical styles and cultures could fuse together seamlessly - the city where “King of Swing” Benny Goodman could perform Béla Bartók’s Hungarian folk style in the world’s greatest concert hall, Carnegie Hall. The vibrancy of New York gave rise to inspirational figures like Ellen Taaffe Zwilich, the first female composer to win the Pulitzer Prize.

Concert I: The Rhythm of New York City

Saint Michael's College

Each instrumentation is unique; one memorable tune is heard after another; uplifting energy abounds; feats of virtuosity for violins, violas, cellos, oboes, trumpet, horns and harpsichord leap from the stage. All this and more can be found in Bach’s miraculous Brandenburg Concertos. CMS’s annual performances of these works, continually evolving with new casts of artists, is simply a New York tradition not to be missed.
