Ring in 2014 with Yo-Yo Ma and the New York Philharmonic

Watch The New York Philharmonic Gala with Yo-Yo Ma Tuesday, Dec. 31 at 8 p.m. on WV PBS

Live From Lincoln Center will ring in the new year with a special broadcast of the New York Philharmonic’s Opening Gala concert from Avery Fisher Hall featuring Music Director Alan Gilbert and special guest cello soloist Yo-Yo Ma.

The Opening Gala concert will feature dance-inspired orchestral works, including “Azul” by Osvaldo Golijov, a cello concert written for Ma; the world premiere of an arrangement of Astor Piazzolla’s “La serie del Ángel” by Octavio Brunetti, commissioned by the New York Philharmonic; and two classics by Maurice Ravel, “Alborada del gracioso” and “Boléro.”

The broadcast, hosted by Audra McDonald, will also feature interstitial interviews with Yo-Yo Ma and composer Osvaldo Golijov.
