David Garland and Terrance McKnight return to Carnegie Hall to co-host the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra concert in the next of Orpheus’s The New Brandenburg commissions: Melinda Wagner’s “Little Moonhead.” We will be hearing from the Philadelphia-born composer during intermission, and Terrance will be live backstage to speak with concert soloist, violinist Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg. The evening’s music rounds out with Stravinsky, Haydn and the boisterous Astor Piazzola’s Four Seasons.

I have seen Ms. Salerno_Sonnenberg several times, always amazing. I was fortunate to be at Carnegie Hall for this performance, and it is my favorite to date. Thanks so much for airing it. Is it going to be available as a podcast? I would love to listen to it on the Metro in the morning! Better than a cup of coffee! The interviews with Ms. Salerno_Sonnenber before and after her performance were informative and personal. Thanks again for providing this to her fans.
Wonderful, illuminating show. I'm a displaced New Yorker listening online from south Florida, awaiting Melinda Wagner's piece. Great intermission interviews. Thanks, and keep up the good work!
