The DSO’s newly appointed Music Director Jaap van Zweden, will conduct three concerts at the Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater. The Chicago Tribune recently said, “Jaap van Zweden is “the buzz of the podium world.”
The Philadelphia Orchestra and the New York Philharmonic will join the Dallas Symphony Orchestra as resident orchestras for 2009.
The New York Philharmonic will bring their newly-appointed Music Director and Conductor Alan Gilbert, who will conduct four concerts at the amphitheater. Gilbert will be the New York Philharmonic’s youngest music director in the orchestra’s history. He replaces the orchestra’s longtime Music Director Lorin Maazel.
“Mr. Gilbert has a demonstrated talent for devising programs that juxtapose old and new works in engrossing contexts,” The New York Times.
More than 40 internationally renowned soloists and chamber musicians will perform during the Festival including world-renowned cellist Alisa Weilerstein, violinist Gil Shaham, and pianists Yuja Wang, Orli Shaham, Orion Weiss and Garick Ohlsson.
