Superstar soprano Renée Fleming dazzles audiences with music from one of her most celebrated roles: the elegant, enigmatic Countess Madeleine in Strauss’ Capriccio. Noseda conducts Capriccio’s Introduction and dreamy Moonlight Music, before Fleming takes the stage to sing the glorious, wistful Final Scene. Then, revel in Brahms’ lush First Symphony—a masterpiece the perfectionist composer toiled at for 21 years in the shadow of Beethoven’s inescapable legacy.

The vibrant self-conducted string orchestra Sphinx Virtuosi returns. Heralded for its kaleidoscopically varied repertoire, the group brings another bold thematic program, featuring percussion soloist Josh Jones.

Superstars share the stage at an unforgettable double bill of indie-folk Americana. Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Aoife O’Donovan, deemed “a vocalist of unerring instinct” by the New York Times, explores a century of women’s rights on her latest album All My Friends. Comprised of Anaïs Mitchell (Hadestown), Eric D. Johnson (Fruit Bats, The Shins), and Josh Kaufman (The National, Hiss Golden Messenger), folk band Bonny Light Horseman performs orchestral arrangements by Bryce Dessner, including two world premieres.

Indie icon and NSO Artistic Advisor Ben Folds performs hits and new music for his new live orchestral concert album. Widely regarded as one of the major music influences of our generation, Folds’ enormous body of genre-bending sound includes pop anthems with Ben Folds Five, multiple solo albums, and numerous collaborative records. His latest album, 2023’s What Matters Most, is a blend of piano-driven pop-rock songs, while his 2015 Concerto for Piano and Orchestra soared to #1 on both the Billboard classical and classical crossover charts.
