A selection of upcoming events in New York City over the next seven days.
Diego Matheuz leads a program at David Geffen Hall pairing Tchaikovsky's Fifth with music by Erich Wolfgang Korngold. Matheuz, a Venezuelan conductor, joins New York Philharmonic concertmaster Frank Huang in a program that contrasts Tchaikovsky's late-Romantic idiom with Korngold's orchestral language shaped by concert and film work. The billing emphasizes orchestral color and melodic clarity.
Robin Daniel Skinner, known professionally as Cavetown, performs indie rock and pop built around intimate songwriting and steady acoustic guitar arrangements. On the Running With Scissors Tour he brings that approach to the Brooklyn Paramount, leaning on tender ballads and concise pop structures that echo his recorded work and prior performances at venues such as Rough Trade NYC.
The Adi Meyerson Quartet, led by American‑Israeli bassist, composer and educator Adi Meyerson, brings a small‑group jazz approach to Smalls Jazz Club. Meyerson keeps the bass at the center while allowing tightly negotiated ensemble exchanges; her writing favors structure and clear form over spectacle, producing sets that are deliberate and rhythmically grounded.
Anthony Hamilton, a GRAMMY Award–winning singer, songwriter, producer and actor, brings his R&B-rooted repertoire to Westbury Music Fair. The program will foreground his songwriting and vocal craft in a live setting, reflecting the cross-disciplinary career that has earned him industry recognition.
At Signal, Night & Day pairs Anthony Rother (hybrid set) with Ken Ishii, KYRUH, Mike Parker and Mr.Murray. The lineup emphasizes machine-driven rhythms and tight programming: Rother and Ishii bring studio-grounded, disciplined approaches, KYRUH moves between live performance and DJ practice, and the evening alternates hybrid/live sets with precision DJ work.
Unspeakable Joy presents a performance-centered set that draws on club-stage discipline and front-of-room timing, mixing spoken presence with music-forward pacing and a focus on atmosphere and sequencing rather than narrative distance. For its One Year Anniversary the project appears at 3 Dollar Bill; its Spotify presence and collaborations signal an audience inclined to treat the set as a scored sequence rather than a showcase.
Diego Matheuz leads a program pairing Tchaikovsky’s Fifth with music by Erich Wolfgang Korngold at David Geffen Hall. The lineup features New York Philharmonic concertmaster Frank Huang; the program contrasts Tchaikovsky’s orchestral writing with Korngold’s concert-and-cinematic language, reflecting Korngold’s movement between the European concert tradition and early Hollywood scoring.
Bruce Cockburn, the Canadian singer-songwriter whose work sits at the rock/pop edge of the folk tradition, appears at Town Hall with special guest Livingston Taylor. The lineup pairs Cockburn’s guitar-driven, politically alert songcraft—marked by precision and narrative clarity—with Taylor’s melodic, story-led folk sensibility, presenting two different approaches to lyric-centred song.
