The New York Philharmonic This Week!
Wednesdays at 8 pm

Music Director Alan Gilbert and The New York Philharmonic welcome you to the syndicated radio broadcasts by one of the world’s longest-running and most celebrated orchestras.

Of the 52 weekly two-hour broadcasts that make up this series, many will make use of material from the orchestra’s past subscription season. Interspersed throughout the year are programs taken from the Philharmonic’s tours, Summertime Classics, and the orchestra’s residency at the Bravo! Vail Valley Music Festival. There will also be a handful of thematic programs and encore presentations that explore the breadth and depth of the Philharmonic’s extensive library of commercial and archival recordings.

The New York Philharmonic’s first live national radio broadcast took place on October 5, 1930, over the CBS radio network. On that Sunday, Erich Kleiber was on the podium leading the Orchestra at Carnegie Hall. Since that historic broadcast, the Philharmonic has enjoyed an almost continuous presence on national radio.

Alec Baldwin hosts the weekly broadcasts on The Classical Network.

The New York Philharmonic This Week! is distributed by the WFMT Radio Network.
