NEW SEASON: Israeli pianist Inon Barnatan returns to the Princeton Symphony Orchestra in February to perform Johannes Brahms’ Piano Concerto No. 2 in B-flat Major.

The Princeton Symphony Orchestra (PSO) and Music Director Rossen Milanov have announced a 2022-2023 Season with guest artists and varied programming, including lesser known works and a range of genres.

Latin and Spanish, English, American, Italian, and Eastern European sounds will be heard among works by Joaquín Turina, Ruperto Chapí, Edward Elgar, Aaron Copland, Samuel Barber, George Gershwin, Gioachino Rossini, Giuseppe Verdi, Alexander Borodin, and Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. Audiences will also hear symphonies by Beethoven and Tchaikovsky as well as newer works by Jessie Montgomery and Carlos Simon. The U.S. premiere of Marcos Fernandez’ America and the world premiere of William Harvey’s Seven Decisions of Gandhi, with Harvey as solo violinist, are also on the schedule.

PSO debuts include soprano Pretty Yende performing arias by Rossini and Verdi, plus violinists Anne Akiko Meyers and Elina Vähälä and violist Roberto Díaz. Piano virtuoso Inon Barnatan marks his return appearance to the PSO with a performance of Brahms’ Piano Concerto No. 2.

All performances take place on Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 4 p.m., at Richardson Auditorium on Princeton University’s campus. Milanov conducts all concerts but one, which will be led by guest conductor Sameer Patel.

“I am excited to announce PSO’s new season with concerts taking place at our acoustically superb and intimate home at Richardson Auditorium,” said Milanov. “I hope everyone will be inspired by the variety and richness of the repertoire, the incredible artistic partners we will share the stage with, and the opportunity to hear unique and diverse musical stories.”

The season opens the weekend of September 10-11 and concludes the weekend of May 13-14. Initially, concerts are available only by subscription, with single tickets going on sale over the summer. Subscriptions start at $180. Youths 5-17 receive a 50 percent discount with an adult purchase. To subscribe, visit princetonsymphony.org or call (609) 497-0020.
