The Bamberg Symphony

“German Perfection with English Baton” - El Pais, May 10, 2011

The Bamberg Symphony will be led by German-based British conductor Jonathan Nott, who left London 15 years ago to develop his skills through a traditional German career ladder known as the Kapellmeister system: a sort of musical civil service in which you work your way methodically from musical job to job. The Orchestra will be joined by pianist Christian Zacharias  for two shows at Avery Fisher Hall on May 20th and 21st, as part of Lincoln Center’s Great Performers series.
