Juilliard’s AXIOM, led by Jeffrey Milarsky, will open its season with a performance of Louis Andriessen’s De Staat (The Republic) on Sunday, October 14, 2018, at 3 p.m. in Juilliard’s Peter Jay Sharp Theater as part of the New York Philharmonic’s The Art of Andriessen celebration.
In 2016, Andriessen was selected as the third recipient of the Marie-Josée Kravis Prize for New Music at the New York Philharmonic, where he will be working with Juilliard alumnus and incoming New York Philharmonic music director Jaap van Zweden. The concert opens with a tribute to late composer Oliver Knussen and a performance of his Two Organa, Op. 27, followed by Stravinsky’s Concerto in E-flat Major, “Dumbarton Oaks.”
Tickets for AXIOM concerts are free and available at juilliard.edu/calendar.
