The Philharmonic performs Elgar’s beloved Enigma Variations, dedicated “to my friends pictured within” — from his wife to his friend’s dog — and featuring the stirring Nimrod movement, often performed to commemorate departed friends.
Britten’s Four Sea Interludes reveal haunting ocean moods, and the Philharmonic presents the New York Premiere of Brett Dean’s long-awaited Cello Concerto. “The individual battles against the masses” in many of his concertos, but “the Cello Concerto is at the opposite extreme in that it is more concerned with collaboration than conflict,” says the composer.
