Gustavo Dudamel will be leading the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra in three New York area concerts this week. At the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark on Saturday (Nov. 15 at 8pm), he'll conduct Bernstein's Halil and Concerto for Orchestra, "Jubilee Games," and Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 4. They'll repeat that program at Carnegie Hall on Sunday afternoon (Nov. 16 at 2pm). On Monday night (Nov. 17 at 8pm), Dudamel and the orchestra are back at Carnegie Hall with Bach's Concerto for Two Violins in D minor, Bruch's Violin Concerto No. 1 and Brahms's Symphony No. 4. Pinchas Zukerman performs in the Bach and Bruch concertos; Nitzan Bartana, a young Israeli violinist, is the other soloist in the Bach concerto, and I hear tell that Dudamel will himself be playing in the orchestra during that piece.
