Samuel Barber — Violin Concerto, Op. 14 (Hilary Hahn, soloist)
Gustav Mahler — Symphony No. 1 in D major "Titan"
Applaud the New York Philharmonic in the concluding concert of its season at Carnegie Hall. The performance opens with a world premiere by Sarah Kirkland Snider, a “rising star on the American compositional scene” (The Wall Street Journal). Hilary Hahn joins the orchestra for Barber’s Violin Concerto, a work that enchants with its lyricism – its second-movement dialogue for oboe and violin is ravishing – and breathlessly virtuosic finale. Mahler’s music is one of this orchestra’s hallmarks; his First Symphony depicts evocative sounds of nature, with added dashes of klezmer and tender folk song before its thunderous ecstatic climax.
The printed program will last approximately two hours, including one 20-minute intermission.
