Alan Gilbert and the New York Philharmonic Top the Lists of 2010 Highlights

The results are in: The New York Times, Time Out New York, New York Magazine, and The New Yorker all put Alan Gilbert and the Philharmonic at the top of their lists of cultural highlights of the year 2010. Citing Mr. Gilbert's "youthful vigor and bold initiatives," the Philharmonic's May production of Ligeti's Le Grand Macabre was called, "the greatest triumph achieved by any New York musical institution in 2010," and an "audacious" event and "bold gesture," which had audience members delivering "full-throated ovations."

This June the Philharmonic presents Janácek's The Cunning Little Vixen, the next collaboration between Alan Gilbert and director/designer Doug Fitch, which is sure to be one of many list-topping concerts in 2011.
