The recipient of a 2006 Musical Fund Society Career Advancement Award and the 2003 Avery Fisher Career Grant, pianist Natalie Zhu is a regular favorite with PCMS audiences. She returns in a solo recital with works by Mozart, Schumann, Chopin and Beethoven, which is sure to be a display of “emotional and pianistic pyrotechnics” (The Philadelphia Inquirer).
Philadelphia Orchestra Principal Trombone Nitzan Haroz presents the first-ever PCMS concert showcasing the trombone. The Israeli-born trombonist is an active chamber musician, having performed with the New York, Philadelphia, and Israel brass ensembles; the Rishon-Le Zion Brass Quintet; and many other chamber groups. He is joined by pianist Gloria Kim and a quartet of trombones in this very special PCMS debut.

Plus Telemann’s Hamburger Ebbe und Flut (Ebb and Flow) – a grand orchestral portrayal of tides, merry boat-people and watermen falling in love.
If you didn’t get to hear Pierre Jalbert’s elegant Light, Line, Shadow premiered at the Philadelphia Museum of Art in July 2018, you can hear a reprise of it on Network’s 2018–19 season opener.
