Revving Up

If you’re not yet psyched about experiencing Magnus Lindberg’s Kraft by watching the Webcast on medici.tv — which begins at 2:00 p.m. New York time — you will be after watching this video of Alan Gilbert and the Philharmonic’s preparations for today’s concert at Dresden’s Volkswagen Transparent Factory! Then check in tomorrow for photos and more video on our Virtual Tour.

Unanswered Questions

Speaking of, you can still relive the Philharmonic’s performance of Ives’s The Unanswered Question (with a beautiful trumpet solo by Phil Smith), plus Stockhausen’s Gruppen and more, from Philharmonic 360, co-produced by the Orchestra and the Park Avenue Armory.

Q2 Music, WQXR’s contemporary-music station, will stream the concert audio July 14 at 10 a.m., and it will be available on-demand for 30 days on q2music.org. Or you can watch a Philharmonic-produced webcast via medici.tv.

Did you miss Philharmonic 360, the sold-out event that had everyone abuzz?

Were you one of the lucky attendees, but you’re itching to relive the experience? (Who could blame you?)

Is “see Gruppen performed” still on your bucket list?

You’re in luck. With footage captured by 10 strategically placed cameras, the Philharmonic produced a webcast of Philharmonic 360, which medici.tv begins streaming today at 2:00 p.m. EDT and which will be available for 90 days. 

Philharmonic 360 was co-produced by the Orchestra and the Park Avenue Armory.  Q2 Music will also stream audio of the concert July 10, 11, and 14. More info at q2music.org.
