NEW YORK, NY (January 28, 2019) — Jane Moss, Lincoln Center’s Ehrenkranz Artistic Director, has announced details of Lincoln Center’s 54th Great Performers series. Since its inception, the series has showcased many of the world’s most accomplished and inspirational musicians in the concert halls and performance spaces that span the Lincoln Center campus. The 2019/20 season features an array of the most prominent and beloved musicians of our time as well as up-and-coming artists bursting onto the scene: distinguished vocalists and illustrious instrumental soloists; acclaimed period-instrument orchestras, esteemed choral groups and renowned chamber ensembles; and virtuosic orchestras and their extraordinary conductors.
Highlights of the season include the very first opportunity in New York to hear dramatic soprano Christine Goerke singing Isolde in Act II of Tristan und Isolde; Gustavo Dudamel in back-to-back concerts featuring Bruckner’s Fourth Symphony and the New York premiere of the new piano concerto John Adams wrote for Yuja Wang, Must the Devil Have All the Good Tunes?; mezzo-soprano Susan Graham’s return to Alice Tully Hall; Daniil Trifonov in an all-Bach recital; the complete Bartók quartets paired with Beethoven by the Emerson String Quartet; Simon Rattle conducting Bartók’s Bluebeard’s Castle and Mahler’s Fourth Symphony with the London Symphony Orchestra; Simon Rattle as pianist in an evening of song with mezzo-soprano Magdalena Kožená and friends; and Jeremy Denk performing Bach’s The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book I.
Visits from two renowned chamber orchestras feature premieres that use centuries-old masterworks as their influence. The Britten Sinfonia and The Sixteen, with conductor Harry Christophers, present the North American premiere of James MacMillan’s Stabat Mater, a new take on the timeless hymn text depicting Mary weeping at the cross. And The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra and their artistic partner Pekka Kuusisto bring Anders Hillborg’s Bach Materia, based on the Brandenburg Concerto No. 3.
Several artists have curated programs in 2019/20 that delve deeply into the hearts and minds of a sole composer, offering audiences a fascinating and intensive glimpse into the creative process. Two of Bach’s most introspective and seminal piano works figure prominently in the season: at the outset, phenom Kit Armstrong takes a turn at the Goldberg Variations, and toward the end, the ever-inventive and introspective Jeremy Denk reflects upon The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book I. Other single-composer-focused programs include:
The esteemed Emerson String Quartet, known for offering thoughtful programs comparing and contrasting pairs of composers, offers a three-concert series at Alice Tully Hall, juxtaposing all six of Bartók’s string quartets with Beethoven’s three “Razumovsky” quartets. Additional highlights of the season include the series Mahler on Film, pre-concert lectures, and a wide range of recitals and concerts from established luminaries to rising stars presented in David Geffen Hall, Alice Tully Hall, the Walter Reade Theater, and the David Rubenstein Atrium.
“Great Performers offers a diverse range of classical music programs, from the vast landscape of a Mahler symphony to the intimacy of the late Beethoven piano sonatas,” says Jane Moss. “We are especially pleased that wonderful artists such as Simon Rattle and the London Symphony Orchestra, singer Susan Graham, esteemed pianist Daniil Trifonov, and the up-and-coming young conductor Lahav Shani, among many others, will be performing on our stages this season. It is certain to be a season of memorable and meaningful musical experiences for all of us. “
Lincoln Center’s Great Performers 2019/20
Series Overviews at a Glance
Symphonic Masters
The Symphonic Masters series is the foundation of Great Performers, and each year Lincoln Center presents five of the world’s leading orchestras and their accomplished music directors at David Geffen Hall. The 2019/20 season is no exception, with four well-established maestros at the peaks of their careers and the debut of a newcomer who is destined to achieve the same stature.
Equally at home with both the operatic and symphonic repertoire, the versatile Gianandrea Noseda, in his first Lincoln Center appearances as the National Symphony Orchestra’s music director, demonstrates his operatic prowess conducting opera in concert: Act II of Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde with an all-star cast that includes heroic tenor Stephen Gould as Tristan; dramatic soprano Christine Goerke singing Isolde; Ekaterina Gubanova as Brangäne; Günther Groissböck as King Marke; baritone Hunter Enoch as Kurwenal; and Neal Cooper as Melot. (November 17, 2019).
Next, the Los Angeles Philharmonic and Gustavo Dudamel return to Lincoln Center with a pair of concerts: the first is devoted solely to the expansive and dramatic Symphony No. 4 of Bruckner (“Romantic”) (November 24, 2019). In contrast, the second concert is a veritable illustration of the orchestra’s virtuosity and flair: Dudamel shows off his orchestra with Ginastera’s Variciaones concertantes and Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring. Pianist Yuja Wang displays her own incredible technique and musicianship as soloist for the New York premiere of Must the Devil Have All the Good Tunes?¸ the new piano concerto John Adams composed at her request. (November 25, 2019).
February brings the charmingly unpredictable Iván Fischer, who leads two concerts with his Budapest Festival Orchestra. They begin with an all-Dvorák program highlighted by the Violin Concerto with Renaud Capuçon plus the Symphony No. 8 (February 23, 2020); the following evening is an all-Mahler program featuring contralto Gerhild Romberger’s New York debut in Kindertotenlieder, as well as the monumental Symphony No. 5 (February 24, 2020).
Appointed at the mere age of 28 as the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra’s chief conductor, Daniel Barenboim protégé Lahav Shani brings his new orchestra for an all-Brahms program. His Lincoln Center debut features the beloved Emanuel Ax as the soloist for the Piano Concerto No. 1, as well as the composer’s Symphony No. 4 (March 15, 2020).
Wrapping up the series is Simon Rattle with the London Symphony Orchestra. Their two-day appearance opens by showcasing the ensemble in Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra. The second half of the concert is devoted to the composer’s harrowing Bluebeard’s Castle (May 3, 2020), with Gábor Bretz portraying the villainous Bluebeard, and Rinat Shaham singing the role of Judith, his unsuspecting bride. The next evening is distinctly different as Patricia Kopatchinskaja, known for her fierce and fearless approach to music-making, joins Rattle and the orchestra for the Ligeti Violin Concerto. Villa-Lobos’s Bachianas brasilieras No. 5 features the orchestra’s renowned cello section with soprano Camilla Tilling, who joins Maestro Rattle as the orchestra turns its attention to Mahler’s Symphony No. 4 in the second half of the program (May 4, 2020).
These programs are supported by the Leon Levy Fund for Symphonic Masters.
Symphonic Masters is made possible in part by endowment support from UBS.
Chamber Orchestras
Alice Tully Hall provides a particularly intimate concert-going environment for smaller ensembles, and the 2019/20 Chamber Orchestra season offers a broad palette of internationally renowned groups, each with its own distinct personality. The season begins with two extraordinarily contrasting settings of the Stabat Mater, the sacred hymn text depicting Mary weeping by the cross, that span nearly three centuries.
November brings the North American premiere of Stabat Mater by James MacMillan, a deeply devout Catholic whose choral works have been described as “a direct response to his Christian faith.” A benefactor commissioned the work for conductor Harry Christophers and his choir, The Sixteen, who were joined by the Britten Sinfonia for its world premiere at the Barbican in 2016. Two years later, the group reassembled to perform it at the Vatican, where it was the first-ever work to be live-streamed from the Sistine Chapel. (November 7, 2019)
At the other end of the spectrum from the Macmillan is Pergolesi’s Stabat Mater of 1736, performed by the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment and the Choir of the Age of Enlightenment, the democratic period-instrument orchestra specializing in music of the late 18th century. Conductor Jonathan Cohen, a frequent collaborator with the ensemble, leads the Pergolesi along with Vivaldi’s joyously uplifting Gloria, and they will be joined by sopranos Katherine Watson and Rowan Pierce, and countertenor Iestyn Davies. (November 21, 2019)
In February, Concerto Köln brings all four of their concertmasters to perform an all-concerto concert of Bach, Handel, Vivaldi, Locatelli, and Geminiani (February 27, 2020).
And in May, The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra concludes the season with violinist Pekka Kuusisto, who performs and leads Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 in G major and the New York premiere of Anders Hillborg’s Bach Materia, composed as part of a project by the Swedish Chamber Orchestra in which six composers were commissioned to write works inspired by and responding to each of the six Brandenburg concertos. The orchestra, led from within the ensemble, returns for the second half of the program with Haydn’s Symphony No. 99 and Prokofiev’s Symphony No. 1. (May 16, 2020).
Art of the Song
For more than 30 years, the Art of the Song series has featured the world's finest vocalists in recital. In 2019/20, Lincoln Center presents four of the leading vocalists of our time in the intimate and elegant setting of Alice Tully Hall.
Baritone Christian Gerhaher and his steadfast collaborator, pianist Gerold Huber, open the series with an all-Mahler program that includes Kindertotenlieder and songs from Des Knaben Wunderhorn (October 29, 2019).
Czech mezzo-soprano Magdalena Kožená performs heart-wrenchingly beautiful songs from her homeland by Dvorák and Janácek, along with works of Strauss, Chausson, Brahms, Ravel, and Stravinsky. She is joined at the piano by her husband, Sir Simon Rattle, and several of their closest Berlin and London colleagues and collaborators: violinist Rahel Rilling, violist Amihai Grosz, cellist Dávid Adorján, clarinetist Andrew Marriner, and flutist Kaspar Zehnder (November 26, 2019).
Mezzo-soprano Susan Graham makes a long-awaited return with her go-to recital partner, pianist Malcolm Martineau (February 4, 2020); and, baritone Matthias Goerne and pianist Jan Lisiecki present a collection of Beethoven’s songs, including his first, “Adelaide,” as well as the cycle An die ferne Geliebte (April 28, 2020).
Virtuoso Recitals and Chamber Music
For 2019/20, in Alice Tully Hall, the incomparable Emerson String Quartet will perform three separate programs pairing Bartók with late Beethoven (March 31, April 21, and May 5, 2020). Isabelle Faust performs Beethoven’s first three violin sonatas with pianist Alexander Melnikov(November 20, 2019); the sensational Daniil Trifonov, presented in association with the New York Philharmonic, performs an all-Bach program culminating in The Art of Fugue (March 3, 2020).Steven Osborne performs Beethoven’s three final piano sonatas (April 7, 2020), and, the ever-imaginative Jeremy Denk delves into the The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book I (May 14, 2020).
Sunday Morning Coffee Concerts
Sunday Morning Coffee Concerts are intimate one-hour concerts at the Walter Reade Theater followed by coffee, refreshments, and conversation with the artists. This season’s lineup features an array of accomplished soloists and ensembles, including: pianists Kit Armstrong (November 10, 2019); violinists Rachel Barton Pine (December 8, 2019) and Tessa Lark (May 17, 2020); cellist István Várdai (February 2, 2020); the traditional Russian folk-instrument ensemble Russian Renaissance (February 23, 2020); and the Grammy-nominated Aizuri Quartet (April 26, 2020).
Refreshments are provided by Zabar’s and Zabars.com
Music on Film
Every season, Great Performers presents rare film footage providing a glimpse of master artists and musicians at work. This year’s series focuses on Gustav Mahler, revealing the man behind the music, witnessing a special performance by Leonard Bernstein and the Vienna Philharmonic, and discovering five separate approaches to Mahler and his music by leading conductors.
Presented in association with the Film Society of Lincoln Center and Christian Labrande
Complimentary Classical
The 2019/20 Great Performers season will be the seventh for Lincoln Center’s Thursday evening series of free string quartet recitals in the David Rubenstein Atrium. Concerts last one hour, and admission is on a first-come, first-served basis. The Attacca Quartet presents an all-Caroline Shaw program with the composer herself joining in as vocalist and violist (November 14, 2019). Next comes the Telegraph Quartet (February 6, 2020) performing works of Haydn and Britten. The Argus Quartet performs Beethoven, Katherine Balch, and Janácek (March 5, 2020), and the Heath Quartet makes a return appearance to wind up the series with Beethoven’s Quartet in B-flat major and his Grosse Fuge in B-flat major (April 30, 2020).

Wagner: Tristan und Isolde, Act II
Pre-concert lecture by Cori Ellison at 1:45 pm
Stanley H. Kaplan Penthouse
In his inaugural Lincoln Center performance as the National Symphony Orchestra’s music director, Lincoln Center audience favorite Gianandrea Noseda welcomes a host of today’s leading operatic stars for an opera in concert. Act II of Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde changed the course of opera when it was written, and Wagner himself had planned to present it in a stand-alone concert. The dramatic betrayal of King Marke sets the scene for the passionate longing between Tristan and Isolde in what is the longest and possibly most intense love duet in the repertoire. Stephen Gould, the "go-to” Tristan of our time, is paired with Christine Goerke, known for her exquisite interpretations of Wagner heroines, as Isolde.

Joined by her frequent collaborator Alexander Melnikov at the piano, Isabelle Faust devotes an evening to the exploration of Beethoven’s Opus 30 sonatas for violin and piano. The cycle was composed in 1802, around the time Beethoven was penning his Second Symphony, and marks a transition from his early works to his second stage where he began experimenting with melody, harmony, and structure, thereby moving beyond the Classical traditions of his peers. It was also a time of great personal and political uncertainty and unrest, and Beethoven dedicated all three works to Tsar Alexander I of Russia

Both profoundly poignant and deeply personal, Beethoven’s final three piano sonatas are considered among the most challenging in the repertoire.

Written late in the composer’s life, they are simultaneously graceful, tempestuous and full of self-expression.

Hungarian bass-baritone Gábor Bretz and Israeli mezzo-soprano Rinat Shaham, frequent partners of Rattle’s for the opera, depict the legendary Bluebeard and his wife, Judith, in Bartók’s gripping and terrifying score. The second concert also shines a light on the orchestra’s musicians: Bachianas brasilieras features the ensemble’s cello section with soprano Camilla Tilling, who returns as the soloist for the Mahler symphony later in the program. In the middle, the daring Patricia Kopatchinskaja brings dramatic flair to Ligeti’s fiendishly challenging Violin Concerto.

Bach penned on the title page of his Well-Tempered Clavier, Book I that the collection of preludes and fugues was intended “for the profit and use of musical youth desirous of learning, and especially for the pastime of those already skilled in this study.” The incomparable Jeremy Denk, known for his meticulous yet uninhibited interpretations, draws out the extraordinary color and personality of each individual piece, describing the anthology as “Bach wandering off the deep end.”
The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra
Pekka Kuusisto, violin and director
Saturday, May 16, 2020 at 7:30 pm
Alice Tully Hall
Bach: Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 in G major, BWV 1048
Anders Hillborg: Bach Materia (New York premiere)
Haydn: Symphony No. 99 in E-flat major
Prokofiev: Symphony No. 1 in D major, Op. 25 (“Classical”)
The intrepid Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, “the leading ensemble of its kind in America” has built a reputation around originality in every aspect of their ensemble, and with extraordinary violinist Pekka Kuusisto, one of the orchestra’s five artistic partners, bring an ingenious program pairing classical works with contemporary innovation. Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 was the inspiration for Swedish composer Anders Hillborg’s 2017 Bach Materia, a witty, spirited work that hinges on improvisation. Haydn’s Symphony No. 99, harmoniously adventurous for its time, is followed by Prokofiev’s quirky and agile First “Classical” Symphony, which references Haydn’s genius.

Sunday Morning Coffee Concerts
Intimate one-hour concerts at the Walter Reade Theater are followed by coffee and conversation with the artists—a refreshing Sunday tradition.

Walter Reade Theater
Bach: Goldberg Variations, BWV 988
The phenomenally gifted Kit Armstrong takes a turn at the notoriously demanding Goldberg Variations. The once-obscure Bach composition that launched another genius, Glenn Gould, into the stratosphere, has now become a rite of passage for aspiring young pianists. Armstrong is no stranger to the work, having recorded it live at the Concertgebouw in 2016—when he was 24—in a thoughtful recital that included earlier keyboard works that place the Variations in deeper historical context.
Rachel Barton Pine, violin
Matthew Hagle, piano
Sunday, December 8, 2019 at 11:00 am
Walter Reade Theater
Brahms: Violin Sonata No. 3 in D minor, Op. 108
Beach: Romance, Op. 23
Sarasate: Carmen Fantasy
The Chicago-based violinist Rachel Barton Pine makes a rare New York appearance with a program highlighting her passionate playing, her technical prowess, and her innate ability to connect to audiences with a joyous approach to music-making. An advocate of women composers and performers, Pine has long had Amy Beach’s Romance on her playlist: in addition to recording it for Cedille records in 2006 on an album dedicated to the late 19th-century violinist Maud Powell, she also performed it in 2005 at the annual spring recital presented by the justices of the Supreme Court.
István Várdai, solo cello
Sunday, February 2, 2020 at 11:00 am
Walter Reade Theater
Bach: Suite No. 3 in C major, BWV 1009
Kodály: Sonata for Solo Cello, Op. 8
The young Hungarian cellist István Várdai, who made his American recital debut in 2014 performing Bach’s Cello Suites Nos. 1, 5, and 6, returns to New York for more unaccompanied fare: this time, Bach’s Suite No. 3, paired with the solo cello sonata of one of his countrymen.
Russian Renaissance
Sunday, February 23, 2020 at 11:00 am
Walter Reade Theater
The Russian folk quartet Russian Renaissance uses traditional instruments of their homeland--balalaika, domra/domra alto, button accordion, and balalaika contrabasso—to perform repertoire ranging from tango and folk to classical and jazz.
Aizuri Quartet
Sunday, April 26, 2020 at 11:00 am
Walter Reade Theater
Dvorák: Selections from Cypresses
Gabriella Smith: Carrot Revolution
Sibelius: Voces intimae
Formed in 2012 and combining four distinctive musical personalities into a unique collective, the Aizuri Quartet draws its name from “aizuri-e,” a style of predominantly blue Japanese woodblock printing that is noted for its vibrancy and incredible detail. In this varied program, the Quartet performs Gabriella Smith’s Carrot Revolution, a work they premiered while in residence at the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, and recorded on their Grammy-nominated 2018 debut album, Blueprinting. Smith drew inspiration from the museum’s eclectic collection and its unconventional display, and describes the work as “a patchwork of my wildly contrasting influences and full of strange and unexpected juxtapositions and intersecting planes of sound, inspired by the way Barnes’ ensembles show old works in new contexts and draw connections between things we don’t think of as being related.”
Tessa Lark, violin
Andrew Armstrong, piano
Sunday, May 10, 2020 at 11:00 am
Walter Reade Theater
Bartók (arr. Székely): Romanian Folk Dances
Ysaÿe: Sonata for solo violin in G major, Op. 27, No. 5
Grieg: Sonata No. 3 in C minor, Op. 45
Ravel: Tzigane
Tessa Lark, recipient of a 2016 Avery Fisher Career Grant and a 2018 Borletti-Buitoni Trust fellowship and winner of the 2012 Naumburg International Violin Competition, has been performing as a soloist with professional orchestras since she was 16. In addition to her refined classical artistry, Lark is an accomplished fiddler in the Appalachian and bluegrass traditions of her native Kentucky, and she brings this experience to a program of folk-inflected works by Bartók, Ravel, and others.

Music on Film
Every season, Great Performers presents rare film footage providing a glimpse of master artists and musicians at work. This season brings three films with composer Gustav Mahler at the core. The first is a documentary focusing on the man behind the music; the second is a fascinating study of wildly different approaches to Mahler by five leading conductors. The final film is a rare opportunity to witness through performance the special relationships Leonard Bernstein had with both Mahler and the Vienna Philharmonic orchestras.
Presented in association with the Film Society of Lincoln Center and Christian Labrande
Film Program 1: Gustav Mahler: Anatomy of a Genius
Saturday, February 22, 2020 at 1:00 pm
Walter Reade Theater
Mahler’s portrait comes to life in this documentary through places and objects: his conductor’s podium, the summer home where he composed, his glasses, baton, musical score, and manuscripts. The film attempts to recreate the soul of a man, rather than of an idol. Featuring commentary by biographer Henry-Louis de la Grange, baritone Thomas Hampson, and conductors Claudio Abbado, Leonard Bernstein, Pierre Boulez, and Daniel Harding. Directed by Andy Sommer (2011). 88 minutes
Film Program 2: Conducting Mahler
Tuesday, February 25, 2020 at 6:30 pm
Walter Reade Theater
This beautifully shot documentary highlights Mahler interpretations by conductors Bernard Haitink, Riccardo Chailly, Riccardo Muti, Claudio Abbado, and Simon Rattle, as revealed through interviews, rehearsals, and performances. Featured are three orchestras that Mahler himself once conducted: the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Berlin Philharmonic, and Vienna Philharmonic. Directed by Frank Scheffer (1996). 72 minutes
Film Program 3: Symphony of a Thousand
Tuesday, February 25, 2020 at 8:45 pm
Walter Reade Theater
In this concert film of Mahler’s magnificent Symphony No. 8 in E-flat major (“Symphony of a Thousand”), Leonard Bernstein gathers the massed forces of the Vienna Philharmonic, three choirs, and eight starry vocal soloists for a musical experience of overwhelming grandeur, depicting redemption through the power of love. Featuring the Vienna Philharmonic; conductor Leonard Bernstein; Vienna State Opera Chorus; Vienna Singverein Choir; Vienna Boys’ Choir; sopranos Edda Moser, Judith Blegen, Gerti Zeumer; contraltos Ingrid Mayr, Agnes Baltsa; tenor Kenneth Riegel; baritone Hermann Prey; bass José van Dam.
