Yannick Nézet-Séguin

For Anton Bruckner's bicentennial, we've asked WRTI classical hosts, and a couple of prominent others, to pick some favorite moments in his body of work.

On the first Sunday of every month, WRTI broadcasts a special edition of Sunday Classical, focused on classical new releases. Join host Mark Pinto on WRTI on Sept. 1 from 3-6 p.m. to hear highlights from each of these albums.

Join us on Sunday, Sept. 1 at 1 p.m. on WRTI 90.1 and Monday, Sept. 2 at 7 p.m. on WRTI HD-2 as The Philadelphia Orchestra in Concert brings you works by Gustav Mahler and his wife, Alma Schindler-Mahler.

The Philadelphia Orchestra in Concert brings you a program of Mozart and Price, plus a world premiere by French-Argentine composer Esteban Benzecry. Yannick Nézet-Séguin is on the podium, and welcomes his frequent collaborator, Hélène Grimaud, as piano soloist.

Daniel Matsukawa, principal bassoon of The Philadelphia Orchestra, performs a concerto by Clarice Assad — part of this episode of The Philadelphia Orchestra in Concert, also featuring music by Rachmaninoff and Berio.

"The best thing about the Grammys is that we’re all together," Toyin Spellman-Diaz, oboist in Imani Winds, said while accepting an award. Her pronouncement rings true in light of the breadth of classical artists in this year's winners circle.

In its 125th season, The Philadelphia Orchestra will offer a healthy dose of Mahler, a handful of premieres, and works by composers of color.

The latest Philadelphia Orchestra in Concert program features William Dawson’s Negro Folk Symphony alongside Robert Schumann’s Piano Concerto in A minor, with Tony Siqi Yun as soloist.

There’s a devastating mano a mano confrontation at the heart of Terence Blanchard’s opera 'Champion,' and it might not be the one that you expect.

Richard Wagner's 'Lohengrin' will air at noon on Saturday on WRTI 90.1 FM and at wrti.org.
