Angélica Negrón
You Are the Prelude (Text by Ricardo Alberto Maldonado; World Premiere–New York Philharmonic Commission)

Beethoven
Symphony No. 9


Experience Beethoven’s Ode to Joy in the new David Geffen Hall as the NY Phil performs the composer’s monumental Ninth Symphony. Amplifying the work’s iconic themes of unity and hope, fanfares awaken and illuminate every corner of the new hall, and a World Premiere by Angélica Negrón celebrates the powerful ritual of gathering around music and art. Together we will connect the past with the present in an evening that looks to the future.

Enhance your experience by attending the entire Gala evening, including a celebratory reception and seated dinner. Galas on October 26 and October 28 are fundraising events for the New York Philharmonic and Lincoln Center.
