The 2019 New York Philharmonic Concerts in the Parks, Presented by Didi and Oscar Schafer, will return for the 54th season with free outdoor concerts conducted by Music Director Jaap van Zweden — his first time leading the Orchestra in the historic series — at Van Cortlandt Park, Bronx (June 11); the Great Lawn in Central Park, Manhattan (June 12); Cunningham Park, Queens (June 13); and Prospect Park, Brooklyn (June 14). The program will include Rossini’s La gazza ladra Overture, Copland’s Hoe-Down from Rodeo, Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No. 2, and works by Very Young Composers of New York City. In addition, former Principal Trumpet Philip Smith returns to conduct, host, and perform with the New York Philharmonic Brass and Percussion in highlights from the brass repertoire, American classics, and music by a Very Young Composer of New York City at the St. George Theatre in Staten Island (June 16). Major corporate support for the 2019 New York Philharmonic Concerts in the Parks and the Free Indoor Concert has been provided by MetLife Foundation, Citi, and Emirates Airline.

The performances in the Bronx, Queens, Manhattan, and Brooklyn will begin at 8:00 p.m. and will conclude with fireworks by Volt Live. The Free Indoor Concert in Staten Island will begin at 4:00 p.m.; tickets are free but required and will be available at a later date.

The New York Philharmonic’s free parks concerts have become an iconic New York summer experience since they began in 1965, transforming parks throughout the New York area into a patchwork of picnickers, and providing music lovers with an opportunity to hear classical music under the stars. More than 15 million listeners have been delighted by the performances since their inception.

“Didi and I always look forward to the Concerts in the Parks, this magnificent summer tradition that combines our love of the New York Philharmonic and New York City’s beautiful parks,” said Chairman Oscar S. Schafer. “The series represents the moment when Orchestra and City are most closely connected, and this summer will be particularly memorable, with even more New Yorkers meeting Jaap van Zweden as he concludes his inaugural season as Music Director.”

“As a young student at Juilliard, I played soccer in Central Park: like New York itself, my team was a mixture of people, and the park was a place to enjoy each other’s company, relax, and have fun,” said Music Director Jaap van Zweden. “Now I’m conducting my New York Philharmonic in the Concerts in the Parks, the famous series that brings together the citizens of New York. I’m looking forward to getting to know as many New Yorkers as possible this summer, in Central Park and beyond.”
