LineUp

Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), born in Eisenach, Germany, was a pivotal Baroque composer. Renowned for his mastery of counterpoint and polyphony, he enriched German styles with Italian and French influences. His prolific output includes iconic works like the Brandenburg Concertos, The Well-Tempered Clavier, Mass in B Minor, and Toccata and Fugue in D Minor. Bach is celebrated as one of history's greatest composers, whose genius continues to inspire.
The New World Symphony, an American orchestral academy based in Miami Beach, Florida, was established in 1987 by Michael Tilson Thomas. It serves as a training ground for young musicians pursuing professional classical music careers. The academy is recognized for its adventurous programming and commitment to new American music. Stéphane Denève is its artistic director.
Kaija Saariaho, a Finnish composer, redefined contemporary classical music by blending acoustic instruments with electronics to create rich, spectral sound worlds. Known for operas like "L'Amour de loin" and orchestral works such as "Orion," she earned numerous accolades including the Grawemeyer and Polar Music Prizes, plus two Grammy Awards.
