See The New York Philharmonic Perform A Free Concert Under The Stars At Prospect Park Tomorrow, June 19

Ready to start checking items off your summer bucket list? One of our favorite summertime events takes place right in Prospect Park, on Friday, June 19 at 6:30pm, when the New York Philharmonic returns to the Long Meadow Ballfields for a free concert under the stars.

Gather your friends and family, bring a blanket and enjoy one of the world’s greatest orchestras with an awe-inspiring fireworks display to round out the evening that will celebrate the New York Philharmonic’s 50th summer of free outdoor programming.

Charles Dutoit — a conductor known and loved worldwide — will lead the orchestra in Berlioz’s Roman Carnival Overture; Saint-Saëns’s Violin Concerto No. 3, with Renaud Capuçon as the soloist; Stravinsky’s Petrushka (the 1911 version); and Ravel’s La Valse. The Brooklyn Interdenominational Choir will open the night as part of Share the Stage, a program that invites local musicians to play before the Philharmonic performance in their home boroughs.
