Gewandhausorchester Leipzig

with Andris Nelsons, Leonidas Kavakos & Gautier Capuçon

The Gewandhausorchester made its Boston debut with conductor Kurt Masur on the Celebrity Series in 1974, and the great orchestra has been a favorite of Boston audiences ever since. The third year of a five-year alliance between the Gewndhausorchester and the Boston Symphony Orchestra brings Maestro Andris Nelsons to the podium in a program that pairs Brahms’s Double Concerto for violin and orchestra, featuring violinist Leonidas Kavakos and cellist Gautier Capuçon, with Schubert’s Great C major symphony.
