Specially-curated series by our Perspectives artists and Debs Composer’s Chair provide audiences with greater insight into these remarkable musicians, opening the doors to both new and familiar music. We hope our concerts spanning musical genres—from early music to new works written today—alongside the wide variety of imaginative education and social impact programs created by Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Institute, will inspire people to make deep and enjoyable connections with music.” 2018–2019 Carnegie Hall Season Overview Carnegie Hall’s 128th season launches on Wednesday, October 3 with a festive Opening Night Gala concert by the San Francisco Symphony under the baton of Michael Tilson Thomas with program to include Gershwin’s Cuban Overture and An American in Paris, and Ravel’s La valse. Mr. Tilson Thomas and the orchestra will be joined on this celebratory occasion by renowned soprano Renée Fleming and Broadway superstar Audra McDonald for songs, arias, and duets from the worlds of opera and musical theater. This Opening Night performance is part of an extended Perspectives series curated by Mr. Tilson Thomas throughout the 2018–2019 season with programming reflecting his multifaceted career as a conductor, composer, and educator. The series features seven concerts with four orchestras—the National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America, San Francisco Symphony, Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, and the New World Symphony—featuring music by composers he has long championed, including Mahler, Ives, and Stravinsky as well as the New York premiere of one of his own recent compositions, and collaborations with musical friends, including pianists Igor Levit and Jean-Yves Thibaudet, violinist Leonidas Kavakos, and soprano Measha Brueggergosman.

Thile has curated a five-concert residency that focuses on his performance and compositional skills, revealing the unique art of a performing composer as well as the evolution of collaborative composition. His residency kicks off in October when he is joined by singer-songwriters Sarah Jarosz and Aoife O’Donovan, for Chris Thile: The Song of the Week Show featuring musical selections written for his weekly public radio show, Live from Here. The series continues with two back-to-back solo recitals in Weill Recital Hall to include an original piece commissioned by Carnegie Hall; Chris Thile and Friends: My Love in America an exploration of the evolution of traditional Scots, Irish, and American folk music that opens Carnegie Hall’s Migrations: The Making of America festival; and a concert featuring Nickel Creek and Punch Brothers, acclaimed acoustic groups that both feature Thile as a founding member, in their first-ever double bill performance together. From March 9–April 15, 2019, as a programming anchor to the season, Carnegie Hall presents Migrations: The Making of America, a citywide festival that traces the movements of people, both to and within North America, from different origins and backgrounds who helped to shape and influence our American cultural heritage. The festival will celebrate their many contributions with musical programming at Carnegie Hall and multidisciplinary offerings at leading cultural institutions across New York City. At Carnegie Hall, concerts will celebrate the American musical traditions that flourished as a result of three specific migrations: the crossings from Scotland and Ireland during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the immigration of Jews from Russia and Eastern Europe between 1881 and the National Origins Act of 1924, and the Great Migration—the exodus of African Americans from the South to the industrialized cities of the Northeast, Midwest, and West from 1917 into the 1970s. With performances of bluegrass, old-time, klezmer, Yiddish musical theater, the Great American Songbook, blues, jazz, and more, highlights include an evening of traditional Scots, Irish, old-time, and bluegrass music with Chris Thile; a special double bill with Scottish songwriter and poet Karine Polwart and banjo player-songwriter Kaia Kater; American klezmer clarinetist and bluegrass mandolinist Andy Statman and his trio; and From Shtetl to Stage: A Celebration of Yiddish Music and Culture. Trumpeter Nicholas Payton traces the path of African rhythms from their arrival in the Caribbean through their journey to New Orleans and throughout the United States. Jazz pianist Jason Moranand mezzo-soprano Alicia Hall Moran draw upon their own family lore and the historical record of the Great Migration with a roster of guest artists. The festival celebration will extend beyond Carnegie Hall through performances, exhibitions, and events at more than 35 prestigious festival partner organizations in New York City to highlight aspects of these three migrations as well as others—from Latin America, the Caribbean, Asia, and more—that have contributed to American culture today. A complete festival schedule will be published later in 2018. Carnegie Hall continues its strong focus on new music entering the fourth year of its five-year 125 Commissions Project, an initiative through which at least 125 new works are being commissioned by Carnegie Hall from today’s leading composers. Commissioned composers in the 2018–2019 season include Louis Andriessen, Kinan Azmeh, Harrison Birtwistle, Terence Blanchard, Valerie Coleman, Donnacha Dennehy, Hannah Lash, David Lang, Andrew Norman, Chris Thile, Jörg Widmann and Julia Wolfe, among others. Additional highlights of Carnegie Hall’s 2018–2019 season include performances by seventeen leading orchestras from around the world, including the return of Daniel Barenboim and the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra presenting the annual Isaac Stern Memorial Concert; the Mahler Chamber Orchestra, play-conducted by pianist Mitsuko Uchida; and the 50th anniversary of the New York String Orchestra, led by Jaime Laredo and joined by soloists pianist Yefim Bronfman, violinist Joshua Bell, and NYSO alumni from the past five decades.
