Allen Spanjer, Erik Ralske, and — Lorin Maazel Howard Wall. Mr. Maazel also reaffirmed his ties to two past Philharmonic maestros: Arturo Toscanini and Gustav Mahler. He conducted a gala concert with the New York Philharmonic and another ensemble that he helms, the Symphonica Toscanini; that event established and endowed the Philharmonic’s Arturo Toscanini Associate Conductor Chair. At the conclusion of the season, Mr. Maazel conducted Mahler’s Symphony No. 7, a work that showcases the virtuosity of the New York Philharmonic.

The commissioning and premiering of a new work requires profound creative collaboration among the composer, the conductor, the soloist, the ensemble, and the commissioning organization. In 2006–07 the New York Philharmonic played a role in bringing to the stage four new pieces, three of them co-commissions. In February the Orchestra unveiled Pulitzer Prize–winning composer Melinda Wagner’s Trombone Concerto, which the Philharmonic commissioned for Principal Trombone Joseph Alessi; Lorin Maazel conducted. In the season’s first subscription concerts he led the U.S. Premiere of Hans Werner Henze’s Sebastian im Traum, a co-commission with the Eduard van Beinum Stichting, Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, and Tonhalle-Gesellschaft (Zurich). In December David Robertson joined forces with mezzo-soprano Patricia Bardon for the U.S. Premiere of Kaija Saariaho’s Adriana Songs, co-commissioned with the Auftakt Festival, Alte Oper Frankfurt, and the Orchestra Sinfonica Nazionale della RAI; the per- formances included a Hear & Now discussion hosted by composer Steven Stucky. The next Hear & Now and its accompanying subscrip- tion concerts saw the World Premiere of Esa-Pekka Salonen’s Piano Concerto, dedicated to Yefim Bronfman, and a joint commission by the Philharmonic, The BBC, Radio France, and NDR Hamburg; the composer conducted and the dedicatee was the soloist.

Some works call for more collaborations than others. In the 2006–07 season an opera, a film, choral music, and a Broadway favorite were on the docket, performed in languages ranging from French, Russian, and German to the best and worst articulation of the King’s English. Lorin Maazel brought his operatic experience to bear with acclaimed performances of Ravel’s one-act opera L’Enfant et les sortilèges, with a large cast that featured sopranos Patrizia Ciofi and Jessica Jones; mezzo-sopranos Susanne Mentzer, Isabel Leonard, and Kelley O’Connor; tenor Philippe Castagner; baritone Ian Greenlaw; and bass Kevin Deas; with the New York Choral Artists and the Brooklyn Youth Chorus. He also led Brahms’s A German Requiem, with soprano Celena Shafer, baritone Matthias Goerne, and the New York Choral Artists, as the conclusion to Brahms the Romantic. Associate Principal Conductor Xian Zhang led the Orchestra and the New York Choral Artists in the music Prokofiev wrote to accom- pany the Eisenstein film, Alexander Nevsky, employing a restored print and score produced by John Goberman. And four performances of Lerner and Loewe’s My Fair Lady, produced by Thomas Z. Shephard and directed by James Brennan, brought down the house, thanks to the performances of Broadway’s Kelli O’Hara, film and stage stars Kelsey Grammer, Brian Dennehy, and Charles Kimbrough, and veteran actors including Marni Nixon.

The generosity, expertise, professionalism, and creativity of a host of individuals and organizations have helped the New York Philharmonic to achieve its continuing ambition of bringing its music to new and larger audiences, and have created strong alliances, both in the United States and abroad. The benevolence and support of new Board Member Oscar Schafer and his wife, Didi, helped the Philharmonic to continue to delight the more than 100,000 concertgoers each year who attend the Philharmonic’s Concerts in the Parks, a traditional delight of summer in the city also made possible through the support of CIT, the City of New York, and the hard work of an army of stagehands. On tour, the Philharmonic worked closely with a new partner, South Korea presenter Kumho Asiana Cultural Foundation, and an old friend, Japan’s Kajimoto Concert Management, on the successful 2006 visit to Japan and Korea, and with Konzertdirektion Schmid, a key collaborator in organizing the acclaimed 2007 Tour of Europe. Teamwork is the very essence of chamber music, which relies on a give-and-take among musicians. Offstage, the musicians of the Orchestra who comprise the Chamber Music Committee program the six-concert annual New York Philharmonic Ensembles at Merkin Concert Hall, which have been sold-out affairs since 1984. And year after year, day in and day out, the strong partnership enjoyed with the staffs of Avery Fisher Hall and Lincoln Center makes the Orchestra’s daily rehearsals, concerts, and special activities smooth and successful events. It has even made possible the growth of our offerings, such as the free plaza viewing of the September 13 Opening Night Concert, nationally broadcast by Live From Lincoln Center on PBS. photo credt here photo credt

Millions of listeners have benefited from the New York Philharmonic’s collaborations with DG Concerts, iTunes, 96.3 FM WQXR, WFMT Radio Network, BBC Radio 3, and Live From Lincoln Center. These have brought the Orchestra’s music far beyond its Avery Fisher Hall home. In the 2006–07 season the Philharmonic’s groundbreaking part- nership with DG Concerts resulted in three more downloads of live performances on iTunes as well as on a CD; as of August 31, the Philharmonic’s DG Concerts releases had been downloaded approxi- mately 10,000 times around the world. The Orchestra’s national 52-week per year radio series, The New York Philharmonic This Week — in syndication by Chicago’s WFMT Radio Network to more than 250 stations since 1997 — completed its second season as a 52-week-per-year program. Also, a new partnership with BBC Radio 3 allowed ten Orchestra performances to be produced and distributed by BBC Radio throughout the U.K., with further distribution through the European Broadcast Union’s Euroradio satellite network, making the Philharmonic the first American symphony orchestra to have a regular presence on European radio. Also new this season: the New York Philharmonic Podcast, pro- duced by Peabody Award–winning broadcaster and 96.3 FM WQXR afternoon host Elliott Forrest, which offers listeners backstage insights and illustrative musical excerpts. Launched as a pilot in April, by August 31 more than 17,000 listeners had downloaded the first six podcasts.
