[email protected] FORMER MUSIC DIRECTOR
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 10, 2012 Contact: Katherine E. Johnson (212) 875-5718; [email protected] FORMER MUSIC DIRECTOR LORIN MAAZEL TO CONDUCT TWO WEEKS OF CONCERTS Pianist YEFIM BRONFMAN To Perform BRAHMS’s Piano Concerto No. 1 Program To Conclude with SIBELIUS’s Symphony No. 2 January 16–19, 2013 Violinist JENNIFER KOH To Make Philharmonic Subscription Debut in LUTOSŁAWSKI’s Chain 2: Dialogue for Violin and Orchestra TCHAIKOVSKY’s Romeo and Juliet, Overture-Fantasy SHOSTAKOVICH’s Symphony No. 5 January 24–26, 2013 Former Music Director Lorin Maazel returns to the New York Philharmonic to conduct two programs in two weeks. In the first week, Mr. Maazel will lead Brahms’s Piano Concerto No. 1 — with soloist Yefim Bronfman, continuing the Philharmonic’s survey this season of Brahms’s complete symphonies and concertos — and Sibelius’s Symphony No. 2 on Wednesday, January 16, 2013, at 7:30 p.m.; Thursday, January 17 at 7:30 p.m.; Friday, January 18 at 2:00 p.m.; and Saturday, January 19 at 8:00 p.m. The following week, Mr. Maazel will lead the Orchestra in Tchaikovsky’s Romeo and Juliet, Overture-Fantasy; Lutosławski’s Chain 2: Dialogue for Violin and Orchestra, with soloist Jennifer Koh in her Philharmonic subscription debut; and Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 5 on Thursday, January 24, 2013, at 7:30 p.m.; Friday, January 25 at 8:00 p.m.; and Saturday, January 26 at 8:00 p.m. The works on both programs reflect the composers’ reactions to nationalism. Sibelius’s Symphony No. 2 is considered to represent Finland’s push for independence, and Tchaikovsky composed Romeo and Juliet at the suggestion of Mily Balakirev, head of the “Mighty Five” Russian nationalist composers. -

Augustin Dumay made his conducting debut at the age of 29, under the aegis of Herbert von Karajan, who had said to him ‘You can’t have as comprehensive an understanding of music as you do without conducting one day !’ Over the last ten years, Dumay has been increasingly in demand as a conductor, alongside his career as a violinist.
