Johnsonk@Nyphil.Org ITZHAK PERLMAN to CONDUCT A FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 11, 2016 Contact: Katherine E. Johnson (212) 875-5718; [email protected] ITZHAK PERLMAN TO CONDUCT AND PERFORM WITH THE NEW YORK PHILHARMONIC BEETHOVEN’s Romances Nos. 1 and 2 for Violin and Orchestra BRAHMS’s Symphony No. 4 BRAHMS’s Academic Festival Overture November 15, 2016 Itzhak Perlman will return to the New York Philharmonic to conduct and perform Beethoven’s Romances Nos. 1 and 2 for Violin and Orchestra, and to conduct Brahms’s Symphony No. 4 and Academic Festival Overture, Tuesday, November 15, 2016, at 7:30 p.m. This concert will mark Itzhak Perlman’s 84th appearance with the New York Philharmonic. He has conducted and performed with the Orchestra twice before: in October 2005 and March 2004. Of the most recent dual appearance, The New York Times wrote: “Just by being Itzhak Perlman, this particular conductor had the Philharmonic’s string players emulating his own relaxed warmth and breadth of tone.” “It’s a pleasure for me to return to the podium of the New York Philharmonic to conduct this great orchestra in their 175th anniversary season and perform two of my favorite composers, Beethoven and Brahms,” said Itzhak Perlman. Itzhak Perlman made his New York Philharmonic debut in May 1965 as the 1964 Leventritt Award Winner in a program conducted by William Steinberg. Most recently, he performed in the 2012–13 season Opening Gala Concert, led by Music Director Alan Gilbert. Artists Undeniably the reigning virtuoso of the violin, Itzhak Perlman enjoys superstar status rarely afforded a classical musician. Beloved for his charm and humanity as well as his talent, he is treasured by audiences throughout the world who respond not only to his remarkable artistry, but also to his irrepressible joy for making music. He has been honored with 16 Grammy Awards, four Emmy Awards, a Kennedy Center Honor, a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, and the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest honor, granted by President Obama in 2015. The 2015–16 season commemorates Itzhak Perlman’s 70th birthday with three album releases and worldwide concert tours. For the first time in many years, this season he tours with pianist (more) Itzhak Perlman / 2 and longtime friend Emanuel Ax in duo recitals that take them to eight cities across America including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, and Washington, D.C. In December 2015 he appeared at Carnegie Hall in a rare trio collaboration with pianist Evgeny Kissin and cellist Mischa Maisky, marking the first time he and Mr. Kissin have performed together. In March 2016 he celebrated the 20th anniversary of his popular klezmer program, In the Fiddler’s House, in comeback concerts with klezmer greats Andy Statman and Hankus Netsky and special guests from the Klezmer Conservatory Band and Brave Old World in Boston, Miami, and West Palm Beach. On the orchestral front, he performed in the Pittsburgh Symphony’s season-opening gala concert, led by Manfred Honeck, and conducts the Los Angeles Philharmonic and San Francisco Symphony. Throughout the season, Mr. Perlman performs with pianist Rohan De Silva, his regular collaborator, in recitals that take them across North America, Asia, and Europe, including their first appearances as a duo in London, Paris, and Munich. Mr. Perlman sees three record releases in celebration of his 70th birthday: a new Deutsche Grammophon album with pianist Emanuel Ax performing Fauré and Strauss sonatas, a 25-disc box set of his complete Deutsche Grammophon and Decca discography, and a 77-disc box set of his complete EMI/Teldec discography. Over the past two decades, Itzhak Perlman has become actively involved in music education through his work with the Perlman Music Program and The Juilliard School, where he currently holds the Dorothy Richard Starling Foundation Chair. He made his New York Philharmonic debut in May 1965 as the 1964 Leventritt Award Winner in a program conducted by William Steinberg; most recently, he appeared in the Opening Gala Concert in September 2012, conducted by Music Director Alan Gilbert. Repertoire Ludwig van Beethoven (1770–1827) composed two Romances for violin and orchestra: his Romance No. 1 for Violin and Orchestra was likely written in 1802 and published in 1803; the Romance No. 2 was likely composed in 1798 (or earlier), but wasn’t published until 1805. Both works allow the soloist to show off his or her mastery of ornamental, fluid lines, and — predating Beethoven’s 1806 Violin Concerto — show the composer’s experimentation with form. These Romances follow the rondo format (a refrain interspersed with contrasting themes); the first is especially lyrical, while the second, slower and more dramatic, foreshadows the slow movement of his Symphony No. 3, Eroica. Maurice Kaufmann joined Walter Damrosch and the New York Symphony Society (which merged with the Philharmonic in 1928) for the Orchestra’s earliest presentation of the Romance No. 1, in November 1902; Anne-Sophie Mutter joined the Orchestra and Kurt Masur for its most recent presentation, in May 2002. David Mannes and the New York Symphony, conducted by Walter Damrosch, first performed the Romance No. 2 in March 1901; Anne-Sophie Mutter, led by Alan Gilbert, most recently presented it in June 2011. Johannes Brahms (1833–97) composed his 10-minute Academic Festival Overture in 1880 as a thank-you to the University of Breslau, which had presented him with a Doctor of Philosophy degree in 1879. Brahms described this new celebratory work — an adaptation of the Rakóczy March, a favorite tune since childhood — as “a very boisterous potpourri of student songs à la Suppé,” integrating four beer hall favorites: “Wir hatten gebauet ein stattliches Haus” (“We have built a stately house”), “Der Landesvater” (“The father of our country”), “The Fox Song — Was komm dort von der Höh” (“What comes from afar”), and “Gaudeamus igitur” (“Therefore, let us (more) Itzhak Perlman / 3 be merry”). Brahms conducted the premiere in Breslau in January 1881. The New York Symphony Society (a Philharmonic forebear), conducted by Walter Damrosch, presented the U.S. Premiere in November 1881, conducted by Walter Damrosch; the Orchestra most recently performed the work on its November 2010 tour of Europe, led by Alan Gilbert. Johannes Brahms (1833–97) composed his Symphony No. 4 in the Alpine village of Mürzzuschlag, in the Styrian Alps, in the summers of 1884 and 1885. Brahms approached the symphony’s premiere, on October 15, 1885, in Meiningen, Germany, with mounting apprehension, but to his amazement, it proved a success, and the symphony’s popularity only increased with repeated performances. “With his Fourth Symphony,” writes New York Philharmonic Program Annotator James M. Keller, “Brahms achieves a work of almost mystical transcendence, born of opposing emotions: melancholy and joy, severity and rhapsody, solemnity and exhilaration.” The New York Symphony (which merged with the New York Philharmonic in 1928 to form today’s New York Philharmonic) performed the work’s U.S. Premiere on December 10, 1886, led by Walter Damrosch; Manfred Honeck led the Orchestra’s most recent presentation in May 2015. * * * Programs are supported, in part, by public funds from New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the New York State Council on the Arts, with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.

From the palaces f of ancient Egypt to the concert halls of our modern cities, the wondrous music of the harp has compelled attention from all peoples and all countries. Through this passage of time many changes have been made mm in the original design. The //.' w¥ ear^y instruments shown in y drawings on the tomb of m Rameses II (1292-1225 B.C.) were richly decorated but mm lacked the fore-pillar. Later the "Kinner" developed by the Sr Hebrews took the form as we |Jr know it today. The pedal harp ||F was invented about 1720 by a Wr Bavarian named Hochbrucker and mm through this ingenious device it be- W came possible to play in eight major f and five minor scales complete. Today the harp is an important and familiar instrument providing the "Exquisite Sound" and special effects so important to modern orchestration and arrange- ment.

  • Mischa Maisky, Cello
    MISCHA MAISKY, CELLO Mischa Maisky has the distinction of being the only cellist in the world to have studied with both Mstislav Rostropovich and Gregor Piatigorsky. Rostropovich has lauded Mischa Maisky as "... one of the most outstanding talents of the younger generation of cellists. His playing combines poetry and exquisite delicacy with great temperament and brilliant technique." Born in Latvia, educated in Russia, after his repatriation to Israel, Mischa Maisky has been enthusiastically received in London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna, New York and Tokyo, along with the rest of the major music centers. He considers himself as a citizen of the world: „I’m playing an Italian cello, with French and German bows, Austrian and German strings, my 6 children were born in 4 different countries, my second wife is half Sri Lankan – half Italian, I’m driving a Japanese car, wear a Swiss watch, an Indian necklace and I feel at home everywhere where people appreciate and enjoy classical music.“ As an exclusive Deutsche Grammophon artist during the last 30 years he made well over 35 recordings with such orchestras as Vienna, Israel and Berlin Philharmonic, London Symphony, Orchestre de Paris, Orpheus und Chamber Orchestra of Europe and others. His recordings have enjoyed world-wide critical acclaim and have been awarded five times the prestigious Record Academy Prize in Tokyo, three times Echo Deutscher Schallplattenpreis, Grand Prix du Disque in Paris and Diapason d’Or of the Year as well as the coveted Grammy nominations. One of the highlights in his career was the year 2000 - it was mainly devoted to a world-wide Bach tour which included over 100 concerts! In order to express his deep admiration for this great composer, Mischa Nordic Artists Management / Denmark VAT number: DK29514143 http://nordicartistsmanagement.com Maisky has recorded Bach's Solo Suites three times.
