Carnegie Hall: Munich Philharmonic
$157-$180 ($9 fee applies)
- Yefim Bronfman, piano
- Zubin Mehta, conductor
Johannes Brahms — Symphony No. 2 in D major, Op. 73
Zubin Mehta leads the Munich Philharmonic in its second all-Brahms performance at Carnegie Hall. Brahms's Second Piano Concerto is as notable for its gorgeous orchestral writing as it is its muscular piano part, and its complementary balance between the two is nearly unrivaled. In pianist Yefim Bronfman, the orchestra has an ideal soloist for this famously demanding piece. Also featured is Brahms's epic Second Symphony, which Mehta is highly acclaimed for conducting. "I became a conductor because deep down I wanted to conduct Brahms's four symphonies," says Mehta.
