Maestro Gianandrea Noseda returns to the United States this month through early December to conduct a wide range of programs from Dallapiccola to Beethoven and Gershwin to Britten beginning with his first series of subscription weeks as the new Music Director of the National Symphony Orchestra. In between concerts at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., Noseda returns to the New York Philharmonic for the first time since 2006, leading the orchestra in a program that will include Rachmaninoff's Symphony No. 3.

In January 2016, Noseda was named the seventh Music Director of the National Symphony Orchestra. He inaugurated his four-year tenure with a critically acclaimed season opening gala celebrating the Leonard Bernstein centennial on September 24, 2017; that concert is still available on replay at medici.tv.

Noseda's first subscription weeks with the National Symphony Orchestra begin on November 9 and continue through early December. The first subscription program, November 9 - 11, features Webern's Passacaglia and Dallapiccola's Partita with soprano Corinne Winters, and concludes with Beethoven's "Eroica" Symphony. The following week, November 16 - 19, Noseda explores a diverse program that includes Gershwin's An American in Paris, Respighi's Fountains of Rome, Chausson's Poème, Op. 25 with concertmaster Nurit Bar-Josef, and de Falla's The Three-Cornered Hat, Suites No. 1 & 2.

Following the second subscription week in Washington, D.C., Noseda will make a long-awaited return to the New York Philharmonic, where he last appeared as a guest conductor in 2006. From November 22 to November 25, Noseda will conduct four concerts of Rimsky-Korsakov's The Legend of the Invisible City of Kitezh Suite, Saint-Saëns' Violin Concerto No. 3 with soloist Frank Huang, and Rachmaninoff's Symphony No. 3.

From November 30 to December 2, Noseda concludes his fall residency with the National Symphony Orchestra in three performances of Britten's Matinées musicales after Rossini, Rachmaninoff's Symphonic Dances, Op. 45, and Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 5 in G major, Op. 55 with pianist Yuja Wang.

In-demand internationally as one of the world's eminent conductors, Noseda's 2017/2018 season also includes return appearances with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, the Orchestre de Paris, and the London Symphony Orchestra both in London and on tour in the Far East.

In addition to serving as the new Music Director of the National Symphony Orchestra, Noseda has been Music Director of the Teatro Regio Torino since 2007 and recently completed his first performances of Tristan und Isolde which opened the 2017/2018 season in Torino. Last summer the Teatro Regio Torino, which Noseda has propelled to international acclaim, completed residencies at the Edinburgh International Festival, where he led performances of Verdi's Macbeth and Requiem, and the Royal Opera House of Muscat, Oman with Aida. Noseda also serves as Principal Guest Conductor of the London Symphony Orchestra and the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, Principal Conductor of the Orquestra de Cadaqués, and Artistic Director of the Stresa Festival in Italy.

Having made his debut at the Metropolitan Opera in 2002, Noseda has returned to the Met in recent seasons to lead new productions of Gounod's Roméo et Juliette, Bizet's Les pêcheurs de perles, and Borodin's Prince Igor. On May 30, 2018, Noseda will conduct the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra at Carnegie Hall for the first time.
