A Friday matinee turns deadly at the New York Philharmonic.
by Paul J. Pelkonen
On certain, rare occasions, the weekly routine of a New York Philharmonic subscription concert at Avery Fisher Hall is broken by an extraordinary event. Such an event happened at Friday's 11am matinée performance. The concert featured pianist and conductor Jeffrey Kahane leading a thoroughly conventional program: Mozart's Symphony No. 38 sandwiched between two of his piano concertos: No. 21 in C Major and the heaven-storming No. 20 in D minor.
