The 50th season of Lincoln Center's Great Performers series and the sixth season of its White Light Festival commence on October 14 with tenor Mark Padmore and pianist Paul Lewis in the first of three highly-anticipated Schubert song recitals.

The two series will offer 60 performances and events through June, unfolding in 13 venues on and off the Lincoln Center campus. There will be one world premiere and five U.S. premieres amidst an array of music concerts, dance performances, spoken word, film screenings, a free chamber music series in the David Rubenstein Atrium, and panel discussions, culminating in the U.S. premiere of Gerald Barry's opera, The Importance of Being Earnest, co-presented with CONTACT! at the NY Phil Biennial as part of the Lincoln Center - New York Philharmonic Opera Initiative.

Single tickets for White Light go on sale on September 1. An updated combined chronology of both series follows.

Tickets for the White Light Festival and Great Performers are available at WhiteLightFestival.org, LCGreatPerformers.org and by phone via CenterCharge, 212.721.6500, or at the Avery Fisher (on September 24 to be re-named David Geffen Hall) or Alice Tully Hall Box Offices, 65th Street and Broadway.
