Naumburg Orchestral Concerts

Join us for an enchanting evening of classical music under the stars at the Naumburg Bandshell with "The Knights Naumburg Orchestral Concerts" on Tuesday, June 25, 2024, from 7:30 PM to 9:15 PM. This special performance, led by artistic directors Colin and Eric Jacobsen, promises to be a memorable part of the summer season.

The concert will feature a diverse program beginning with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's spirited "Le Nozze de Figaro, K.492 1786 Overture in D major, Presto," followed by Louise Farrenc's powerful "Symphony No. 3 in G minor, Op. 36 1847," showcasing movements from Adagio-Allegro to the lively Finale.Allegro. After an intermission, the evening will conclude with Ludwig van Beethoven's beloved "Pastoral" Symphony No. 6 in F major, Op.68 1808, taking the audience through a range of emotions from the cheerful to the serene.

This performance by The Knights, who have been a part of our series since June 2009, is made possible through the generous support of The Hess and Helyn Kline Foundation. We dedicate this concert to the fond memory of John L. Gerlach, who passionately directed and produced Rockefeller University’s Tri-Institutional Noon Recital Concerts from 1988 to 2023.

Don't miss this opportunity to experience the magic of live orchestral music in one of New York's most iconic settings. For more information and to support the Naumburg Orchestral Concerts, please visit our website.
