About the event
Event Overview From November 20 to 22, 2025, the New York Philharmonic presents an evening of emotional depth and radiant orchestration at David Geffen Hall. Conducted by Dima Slobodeniouk, this program bridges the lyrical beauty of American music with the textural richness of the Nordic soundscape.
The evening opens with the New York Premiere of Stonework by Finnish composer Sebastian Fagerlund, whose music has been praised for its “fierce energy and intricate brilliance” (BBC Music Magazine). Then, internationally celebrated violinist Augustin Hadelich takes the spotlight in Samuel Barber’s Violin Concerto—a work of sweeping emotion, balancing heartfelt lyricism with virtuosic fire.
The program concludes with Sibelius’s Symphony No. 2, a beloved cornerstone of the symphonic repertoire, filled with natural beauty, rhythmic momentum, and soaring triumph.
