From 24 January to 6 February Valery Gergiev will be conducting the Mariinsky Orchestra in a series of concerts of Russian music at major venues in the USA. One key event of the tour comes with the Mariinsky Orchestra’s performances on 27 and 28 January at the fabled Carnegie Hall – one of the world’s most prestigious concert venues.
The concert on 28 January – featuring Shchedrin’s First Orchestral Concerto (Mischievous Folk Ditties), Tchaikovsky’s Second Piano Concerto with Denis Matsuev as a soloist and Prokofiev’s Fifth Symphony– will be broadcast live by Medici TV.
The broadcast begins at 20:00 EST (GMT-5:00).
Despite the twenty-year-long period of collaboration between the Mariinsky Theatre and Carnegie Hall, this will be the first live broadcast of a concert on a major arts channel.
