About Work by Gunther Schuller(chamber)
At David Geffen Hall, New York Philharmonic musicians present chamber music by Gunther Schuller, a composer who helped define New York’s postwar “Third Stream” conversation between classical form and jazz practice. The program is framed within an ensemble concert that also places his writing alongside Tchaikovsky, Villa-Lobos, and Gubaidulina, with featured performers including Lisa GiHae Kim, Kyung Ji Min, Anna Rabinova, and Leah Ferguson. If this repertory is not a NYC premiere, it still carries local weight: Schuller’s career is intertwined with the city’s institutions and its argument about what classical music can contain. His chamber works tend to reward close listening more than easy lyricism.
