Dvorak's Ninth Symphony, Saturday, November 15, 7:30 p.m.

Tune in live from SoundScape Park when conductor Domingo Hindoyan leads New World Symphony in Dvo?ák’s Ninth Symphony. 

When Dvorak composed his Ninth Symphony, he was living in America and longing for the Czech countryside he’d left behind. His music captures an ache for belonging and thrill of discovery that feels as relevant now as it did in 1893.

Not unlike Dvorak and his journey through America, the Fellows of your New World Symphony come to Miami Beach from all over the world, in search of a creative community to call home.

This performance also features Alban Gerhardt, hailed by The Guardian as “one of the finest cellists around.” 

Alban Gerhardt began his career with the Berlin Philharmonic when he was just 21 years old. Now an in-demand soloist, he’s gained recognition as one of the world’s most versatile cellists, highly regarded for his technical mastery, profound musicality, and insatiable artistic curiosity. At the November 15 WALLCAST Concert, Gerhardt makes his New World Symphony debut with Shostakovich’s Second Cello Concerto.

Honeck: Mahler 4, on December 13, 2025, at 7:30 p.m.

Tune in live from SoundScape Park when Manfred Honeck leads New World Symphony in an evening of Viennese delights from Johann Strauss, Gustav Mahler, and Joseph Haydn. The evening begins with the pomp and whimsy of Strauss’ Overture to Die Fledermaus.

Then the Fellows of New World Symphony bring youthful brilliance to Mahler 4. From the first jingle of sleigh bells to a wide eyed, ecstatic depiction of heaven, Mahler’s shortest symphony is also his most charming.
