Performer: Orchestra of St Luke's

The French conductor pairs Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony with several of the composer’s more obscure miniatures, performed alongside thematically related poetry.

Principal Conductor Bernard Labadie leads the Orchestra of St Luke’s in a superbly sung and played performance of Bach’s fiery and dramatic St John Passion. 

A chilling masterpiece, a tribute to a beloved dancer, and the announcement of a new resident choreographer galvanized the Paul Taylor Dance gala audience at New York's Lincoln Center.
