The Boston Symphony Orchestra has announced details of its 2026-2027 season, marked by programs focused on singular composers and themes, a dynamic Artist in Residence, and significant world and U.S. premieres.
  • On The Bach Hour, the enigmatic Canadian pianist dispatches one of Bach's greatest masterpieces in an interpretation for the ages.
  • On WCRB In Concert with Music Worcester, pianist Jeremy Denk and cellist Zlatomir Fung explore Bach’s solo music for their respective instruments in honor of the great composer's birthday.
  • Pianist Yunchan Lim reunites with the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Music Director Andris Nelsons in Robert Schumann’s sweepingly dramatic Piano Concerto, followed by Tchaikovsky’s “Manfred” Symphony.
What makes an opera performance great? GBH Music partnered with Boston Lyric Opera, New England Conservatory of Music, and legendary opera singers Patricia Racette, Susan Graham, and Davóne Tines to explore an extraordinary art form.
