Mendelssohn & R. Strauss: A Journey to Playfulness

  • W83 Ministry Center 150 W. 83rd Street NEW YORK United States (map)

NYCP opens its 2026–27 season with wit, brilliance, and mischievous joy. The program moves from Cole Reyes’s world premiere of Circular Reasoning and Mendelssohn’s youthful Violin Concerto in D minor to Barber’s vivid Capricorn Concerto and Texu Kim’s new arrangement of Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue. The evening concludes with Reyes’s chamber orchestra arrangement of Strauss’s Till Eulenspiegel, bringing the work’s satirical pranks into vivid, intimate focus.

Saturday, September 19 at 7:30 pm. 
Admission is free. Suggested donation: $20 for adults, $10 for students and seniors.
