New York Philharmonic Young People's Concert

We attended the 1st of the Young People's Concert series with the New York Philharmonic for the new season (our third year). While we enjoyed listening to selections by Britten, Purcell, Copland and Beethoven we missed the previous conductor Delta David Gier. Gier's passion was contagious as he interacted with the audience while the new format has a host speaking between selections rather than the conductor. It's still a wonderful way to spend a Saturday afternoon in NYC. We also enjoyed the new fountain at Lincoln Center which has been under construction forever but well worth the wait.
