ROUTE 9 ENSEMBLE Debut Concert Event: Mahler 4, Berio Folk Songs and Zorn's Kol Nidre - The National Opera Center in NYC and more

The Route 9 Ensemble presents an innovative program...

                    The Route 9 Ensemble, hailing from NYC, Amherst MA and Boston, MA will finally converge their talents for their
debut concert event featuring the centerpiece: MAHLER SYMPHONY no.4. This program is to be presented at New York City's sparkling new state of the art hall at the National Opera Center on Saturday February 1 at 8PM and  Immanual Lutheran Church in Amherst MA on February 8 at 7PM. Other performances to be announced soon.

                    The Route 9 Ensemble, conducted by Jonathan Brennand, brings an intimate and exciting performance of Mahler's 4th Symphony to life in a chamber setting. Also on the program is a zesty and fun set of the Folk Songs by Luciano Berio for voice and seven instruments, as well as a string quintet by John Zorn entitled Kol Nidre, a somber meditation on the holiest of days on the Jewish calendar, the Day of Atonement.
