Alan Gilbert and Sol Gabetta play Brahms, Martinu and Bach

Alan Gilbert was until very recently Music Director of the New York Philharmonic.

He conducts Brahms’ Third Symphony, undoubtedly Brahms’ best-known of the four symphonies, due to its covers by Gainsbourg, Montand or Sinatra.

Sol Gabetta is the artist-in-residence this season at the Auditorium.

She has chosen to play Martinu’s Premier Concertino, which she has just recorded with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.
