The New York Philharmonic is one of the world's longest-running and most celebrated
orchestras. This weekly radio program presents concerts from the orchestra's subscription
season, along with selections from the Philharmonic's tours, Summertime Classics,
and residency at the Bravo! Vail Valley Music Festival in Colorado. There are also
occasional thematic programs and encore presentations that explore the breadth and
depth of the Philharmonic's extensive library of commercial and archival recordings.
Hosted by Emmy and
