“Both as an experienced and persuasive new-music conductor and as an insightful interpreter of the standard canon” (The New York Times), conductor David Robertson captures the attention of audiences whenever he stands at the podium. Few maestros are as energetic, vital, or riveting as Robertson, who has served as a champion of young musicians throughout his career. He returns to Carnegie Hall to lead an inventive program of chamber delights with Ensemble ACJW, a remarkable group of young professional musicians from The Academy.
