The Associate Conductor of the Philadelphia Orchestra, Cristian Măcelaru, one of the most promising young conductors, presents two great classical symphonies: Haydn’s deliciously dramatic Farewell and Mozart’s grandiose Jupiter. Martinů’s Sinfonia Concertante, a neoclassical work written in homage to Haydn’s namesake composition, will showcase the extraordinary talent of four formidable soloists from the ranks of the Orchestre Métropolitain.

Cristian Măcelaru

  • Winner of the 2014 Solti Conducting Award, Romanian-born Cristian Măcelaru has established himself as one of the fast-rising stars of the conducting world. With every concert he displays an exciting and highly regarded presence, thoughtful interpretations, and energetic conviction on the podium. Conductor-in-residence of The Philadelphia Orchestra, he began his tenure with that ensemble as assistant conductor in September 2011, and in recognition of his artistic contributions to the Orchestra, his title was elevated to associate conductor in November 2012. The 2014-15 season will see Cristian Măcelaru make his official Carnegie debut on a program with the Danish National Symphony Orchestra. Replacing the orchestra’s Chief Conductor Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos, Mr. Măcelaru will have the honor of conducting the Danish National Symphony Orchestra in Denmark and on a German and U.S. tour in January and February 2015.
