Concert Information

Joseph Young conductor
Sterling Elliott cello
New Jersey Symphony

  • Jessie Montgomery Snapshots (New Jersey Symphony Co-Commission) The BBC called Jessie Montgomery “one of the most distinctive and communicative voices in the U.S.,” and the New Jersey Symphony gives the East Coast debut of her new work, Snapshots.
  • R. Schumann Cello Concerto Heart-on-sleeve music, one gorgeous melody after another soaring from Sterling Elliott’s cello. The New Jersey Symphony backs him up with Schumann’s richest Romantic harmonies.
  • Elgar Enigma Variations Edward Elgar loved to spend his evenings bashing away at his upright piano, chomping on a cigar, making up tunes. This is how he created a kaleidoscopic set of variations on a mysterious melody—all of which made him a household name across the land.
