Wednesday, March 18, 2015 at 8pm New York Philharmonic CONTACT! concert Milton Court - Guildhall School of Music & Drama Milton Court, Guildhall School of Music & Drama, EC2Y 9BH United Kingdom 020 7638 8891 http://www.gsmd.ac.uk/miltoncourt
CONTACT! – the New York Philharmonic’s dynamic contemporary music programme – brings new scores from New York to the Barbican.
When Alan Gilbert became music director of the New York Philharmonic, CONTACT! was one of his first innovations – connecting the Philharmonic directly to the most imaginative new voices in one of the world’s most creative cities. Today CONTACT! comes to London, with a programme that includes Esa-Pekka Salonen’s Homunculus.
“Gilbert has also shown more interest in modern music than any [New York] Philharmonic director since Boulez” says Alex Ross, and with performances in alternative venues ranging from NoHo’s SubCulture to the Museum of Modern Art, collaborators including Yefim Bronfman, Matthias Pintscher and Esa-Pekka Salonen, and programmes dominated by premieres, CONTACT! has given this famous orchestra a new energy. Today’s programme is a celebration of virtuosity – and a chance for London audiences to experience that electricity at first hand, as the NYPO’s leading players engage with works by some of the world’s most exciting creators of new music.

Saturday, March 21, 2015 at Various times, all day Total Immersion: Boulez at 90 Barbican Hall, London Barbican, Silk Street, London EC2 United Kingdom 020 7638 8891 http://www.barbican.org.uk/eticketing
Pierre Boulez is one of the most important voices in post-war European culture. As a composer he has defined the sound of 20th and 21st century music; as conductor he has re-defined the possibilities of Mahler, Wagner and more; as cultural thinker he has shaken up the establishment; and as a teacher he has inspired the next generation. In 2015 we celebrate his 90th year with a BBC Symphony Orchestra Total Immersion day and concerts by the London Symphony Orchestra and the pioneering Ensemble Intercontemporain, founded by Boulez himself in 1976.
