The National Symphony Orchestra and its nearly 100 musicians are coming to the Arsht Center for the first time. Led by Milan-born music director Gianandrea Noseda and based at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., “one of the hardest-working orchestras in the biz” (The Washington Post) is known for its “exhilarating performances” (The New York Times). The Economist proclaimed that “the Italian maestro and the NSO make magic.”

For added dazzle, Hilary Hahn, three-time Grammy winner and Musical America’s 2023 “Artist of the Year,” joins them in Miami. Her performances with Noseda and the NSO are already legendary, and have been described as “unleashing epic cinematic sweep” (Washington Classical Review) with “tempering feats of acrobatic virtuosity with stretches of extreme vulnerability” (The Washington Post).

Don’t miss the “stunning richness and depth” (The Washington Post) of one of our nation’s most celebrated cultural ambassadors in their Knight Concert Hall debut.

PRESHOW CLASSICAL CONVERSATIONS

One hour prior to this performance, join us in the Peacock Education Center for Classical Conversations, an exciting, behind-the scenes look at the musicians, composers and history of what the audience will hear during the concert led by Scott Flavin, professor of violin at the Frost School of Music and resident conductor of the Henry Mancini Institute Orchestra.
