It’s hard to believe it’s been 3 weeks since I’ve been to New York and the Philharmonic. This week’s concert was a eclectic mix of Beethoven, Shostakovich and Gershwin. Russian violinist Lisa Batiashvili was featured in the Shostakovich.

• Beethoven – Fidelio Overture, Op. 72
• Shostakovich – Violin Concerto No. 1 in A minor, Op. 99
• Beethoven – Symphony No. 1 in C major, OP. 21
• Gershwin – American in Paris

Alan Gilbert was back as conductor. The New York Times review is located here.
