Carnegie Hall announced today that its performance by Yannick Nézet-Séguin and The Philadelphia Orchestra on Tuesday, January 11 has been rescheduled for Monday, February 21 at 8:00PM due to COVID-related concerns arising from the large number of singers and instrumentalists required on stage for Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.

The concert program for the February 21 performance-including Beethoven's symphonies nos. 1 and 9 and the world premiere of Gabriela Lena Frank's Pachamama Meets an Ode-will remain as originally announced. Maestro Nézet-Séguin and the Orchestra will be joined by soloists to be announced and the Philadelphia Symphonic Choir. This concert will be the fifth and final performance in the Orchestra's complete Beethoven symphony cycle presented this season at Carnegie Hall, a series that kicked off in October 2021.

Ticketholders are asked to retain their January 11 tickets which will be honored at the new performance on Monday, February 21. Ticketholders with questions can call CarnegieCharge at 212-247-7800 or email feedback@carnegiehall.org.
