Description: Start a concert with a piece that Brooklyn Rider wrote as a group, end with Beethoven, and in between hear Philip Glass. It's this flair for the unexpected and the eclectic that has made this top-notch group one to watch. As indie tastemaker Pitchfork puts it, they are "poised to earn attention on their own terms—regardless of which composers they work with."
Venue Description: Carnegie Hall, renowned universally as one of the most prestigious venues in the US for classical and popular music, distinguished by its beauty, history and majestic acoustics, brings extraordinary music and musicians to its three stages year-round. In addition to hosting classical music and symphony performances, vocal recitals, music festivals, and multicultural world music, Carnegie Hall provides education programs and fosters the future of music through the cultivation of new works, artists, and audiences.
