The National Youth Orchestra of Germany and National Youth Ballet perform Mendelssohn’s “Reformation” Symphony
A substantial jubilee shapes this 2017 guest concert by the National Youth Orchestra of Germany: the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation. Besides Felix Mendelssohn’s splendid Reformation Symphony and Bach’s graceful Orchestral Suite No. 3, two newer works reflecting on the occasion can also be heard. As a special bonus, the German National Youth Ballet performs. Alexander Shelley conducts; John Neumeier is one of the choreographers.
