New York String Orchestra's Christmas Eve Concert at Carnegie Hall: Gil Shaham Plays Barber
Carnegie Hall in Manhattan, New York City, New York, presents the New York String Orchestra's Christmas Eve concert on December 24, 2026, at 7 p.m. Michael Stern conducts and violinist Gil Shaham is the soloist in a program of Barber's Violin Concerto, Beethoven's Prometheus Overture and Symphony No. 8, and Vaughan Williams's Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis.
The New York String Orchestra, an ensemble of young string players, has made Christmas Eve at Carnegie Hall a long-running tradition. Shaham is among today's most beloved violinists; the Barber concerto pairs a lyrical opening with a virtuosic finale, and the Tallis Fantasia, written for double string orchestra, suits this ensemble's makeup.
Time: December 24, 2026, 7 p.m. Venue: Carnegie Hall, Stern Auditorium / Perelman Stage, 881 Seventh Avenue, New York. Tickets: through Carnegie Hall at carnegiehall.org and the box office; see the official page for prices. (Source: Carnegie Hall)
