Performer: Noah Bendix-Balgley

Virtuoso violin fireworks were on brilliant display in Noah Bendix-Balgley's own Klezmer Concerto, while the Baltimore Symphony and conductor Fabien Gabel presented an impassioned, memorably probing Mahler Five.

On the orchestra's first US tour since Kirill Petrenko took over as Chief Conductor, their Carnegie Hall program includes a work by American composer Andrew Norman, an early Mozart concerto and Korngold’s sole symphony.

The septet of players from Vienna and Berlin riff on the classics, jazz, Latin and pop in a toe-tapping set at Klosters Music on Swiss National Day.

Noah Bendix-Balgley describes how he came to be a concertmaster at the Berliner Philharmoniker and what that role entails.
