Ruth Reinhardt led the Juilliard Orchestra at Alice Tully Hall, featuring Gaeun Kim’s passionate Martinu cello solo, superb ensemble playing, and Clara Neubauer’s Brahms solo. Reinhardt drew rich tones, creating flow across classical and modern works, offering fresh, engaging interpretations of familiar and new pieces.

On Monday night at Alice Tully Hall, the Juilliard Orchestra, conducted by Daniela Candillari, was full of warmth, dedication, and energy. Bacewicz’s Overture, written in Nazi-occupied Poland, was lively and upbeat. Juilliard student Sophia Werner’s Barber Violin Concerto showcased a fresh, rich tone and impressive dynamics. Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 10 conveyed deep fear and pain, with hesitant timpani and a sharply ironic concertmaster solo, all brought out masterfully by Candillari’s careful, expressive direction.
