Anna Clyne Masquerade
Originally written for the Last Night of the Proms, English composer Anna Clyne conveys a sense of “occasion and celebration.” Or, as the Berkshire Eagle put it, “Masquerade has the style and sound of an old English music hall, a little like the nostalgic sounds on Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.”
-
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Violin Concerto No. 5, “Turkish”
At just 19 years old, Mozart wrote this virtuosic and sparkling concerto for himself to play (even though it wasn’t his primary instrument!). Canadian phenom Blake Pouliot brings his signature stage presence to this equally thrilling and elegant masterpiece.
-
Maurice Ravel Mother Goose Suite
The New York Times recently said “Ravel wrote nothing more magical, and perhaps nothing so moving” as the final movement of this extraordinary suite—ostensibly for children, but with a complexity and emotional depth as profound as any work of art.
-
Samuel Barber Symphony No. 1
In just 20 minutes and one movement, Barber’s First Symphony packs a punch well beyond its relatively short length. The first American symphony to be played at the Salzburg Festival, Barber’s singular emotional voice, which would later produce Adagio for Strings, shines through every bar.
Performed in Princeton, Red Bank and Morristown

-
Johannes Brahms Symphony No. 3
Dvořák called this symphony Brahms’ most beautiful. A deeply personal work, its autumnal harmonies embody the composer’s personal motto, “free, but happy.” Orchestral musicians regularly call Brahms the most satisfying composer to play—with this masterpiece, it’s easy to hear why.
-
Antonín Dvořák Violin Concerto
Full of folk flavor and rustic rhythms, Dvořák’s only violin concerto is fiendishly difficult. “A virtuoso and a player of deeply intense sincerity” (The New York Times), Gil Shaham makes it sound easy.
-
Antonín Dvořák Carnival Overture
A musical celebration of life and all its joys and possibilities, this delightful bonbon of an overture is the perfect dessert at the end of our program.
Performed in Newark, Red Bank and Morristown

Allison Loggins-Hull Cello Concerto (World Premiere, New Jersey Symphony Commission)
You never know what will happen at a world premiere! Be part of history when the first notes of Resident Artistic Partner Allison Loggins-Hull’s new Cello Concerto resound in the hands of Gabriel Cabezas, a “prolific soloist with an ear for the new” (The Washington Post).
-
Gustav Mahler Symphony No. 5
This 1902 masterpiece topped the streaming charts in 2023 when it was featured in the Academy Award-nominated film Tár. It’s a journey from darkness to light, sometimes terrifying, sometimes tender—always epic.
Performed in Newark, Red Bank and Morristown
Dvořák’s “New World” Symphony
Gabriela Montero Performs Her “Latin” Piano Concerto
Xian Zhang conductor
Gabriela Montero piano
New Jersey Symphony
-
Jean Sibelius Karelia Overture
Sibelius’ music is quintessentially Finnish, with a warmth easily found beneath its initial chill. One of his first published works, this overture brims with nationalistic spirit and folksy charm.
-
Gabriela Montero Piano Concerto No. 1, “Latin”
A Venezuelan piano phenom brings pyrotechnics to her own concerto, a celebration of Latin America in her own words, “a chiaroscuro reflection on who we are as a continent, dark and light.”
-
Antonín Dvořák Symphony No. 9, “From the New World”
The New Jersey Symphony won a GRAMMY for its brilliant recording of this work under previous Music Director Zdeněk Mácal. Now hear Xian Zhang’s thrilling interpretation of this masterpiece, a musical postcard from Dvořák’s American travels, including the famous tune “Goin’ Home” hauntingly rendered by the English horn.
