REVIEW
All-Natural Perfume Making: Fragrances to Lift your Mind, Body, And Spirit
By Kristin Schumann
Having walked through the souks and wanting to go into the perfume shops filled with hand blown perfume bottles and interesting herbs and spices has made me interested in the process of making perfumes. With many plants and flowers in my garden I hoped that this book would tell me how to make my own scents and that it would be easy to do. There are some in the village that distill rose petals and distill grapes to make high proof alcohol – both of which could be used in making perfumes. That said, I think it might be easier and safer to buy perfume from shops than to make my own for now.
What I liked:
* The illustrated list of tools needed
* Terms used with definitions for them
* Basic plants, flowers, barks, etc that can be used for scent/perfume and the impact they have on the body/emotions
* The warnings, cautions, and safety information
* The information on top, middle and base notes in perfume making
* The information on energy – scent used with crystals n specific chakras
* Recipes for specific blends
* How to make extracts – this is one item that I believe I could actually tackle without worrying that I made endanger myself or someone else ;) I have made vanilla extract in the past and might try a floral one in the future
* Reading about Bay Rum, how and why it was created, and that it is still being made today.
What I didn’t like:
* Worrying that I might use too much of an essential oil or other ingredient and end up doing more harm than good.
- Did I enjoy this book? Yes
- Is it likely that I will try making my own perfume? Maybe…but probably not. I might make extracts, though.
Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto knows – becker & mayer! For the ARC – This is my honest review.
4-5 Stars
BLURB

Learn the history and traditional benefits of certain scents as you create your own unique blends from a variety of plant-based ingredients.
In addition to smelling good,natural scents can be a powerful self-care tool to benefit mental and emotional health. Feeling anxious? A blend of vanilla, lavender, cedarwood, and neroli can help relax frazzled nerves. Have a big test coming up? Boost your brain power with rosemary, sweet orange, and peppermint. Once you've grasped the techniques in All-Natural Perfume Making, the possibilities are endless as you mix, layer, and experiment with natural scents.
Perfect for the beginner who wants to create their own signature scents without the use of harsh chemicals, this book provides a solid base on the philosophy and methods of crafting all-natural fragrances that not only smell fantastic but can add to your well-being.

Opprinnelig tittel på pressemeldingen: PRESSEINVITASJON: Eiendom Norge og Finans Norge inviterer til boligkonferanse tirsdag 30. oktober
Kategori: , Økonomi, finans Bygg, eiendom
TEMA: Hvordan er markedsutviklingen og hvordan skaper vi et mer velfungerende boligmarked?
TID: Tirsdag 30. oktober kl 09.00-15.30.
STED: Grand Hotel i Oslo.
Bakgrunn:
De siste årene har boligprisene vært gjennom betydelig svingninger.
Først med en historisk prisoppgang i 2016, så med det sterkeste boligprisfallet siden finanskrisen i 2017.
I første halvår i 2018 ble prisfallet fra 2017 nesten hentet inn igjen, før vi fikk en svakere start på høsten enn vanlig.
Vi stiller spørsmålene:
Hva er bankenes rolle i boligmarkedet?
Hvorfor treffer prognosemakerne så dårlig på boligmarkedet?
Hva betyr finanspolitikken og reguleringer for boligmarkedet?
Finanskrisen 10 år etter. Hvordan var det og hva lærte vi?
Hva kan vi lære av boligmarkedsforskningen?
Du møter blant andre:
Komiker Are Kalvø
Tidligere finansminister Kristin Halvorsen (Sv)
Direktør i Finanstilsynet Morten Baltzersen
Stortingsrepresentant Kari Elisabeth Kaski (Sv)
Tidligere finansråd og tidligere sentralbanksjef Svein Gjedrem
Finans Norge-direktør Idar Kreutzer
Tidligere konsernsjef Baard Schumann
Seniorøkonom i Ny Analyse Mari Mamre

Carnegie Hall’s New Season: Here’s What We Want to Hear
The classical music world has been changing, and some of those shifts will be felt at Carnegie Hall.
Carnegie announced Tuesday that next season would feature the Berlin Philharmonic’s first concerts at the hall under its new chief conductor, Kirill Petrenko; the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra’s first with its music director, Mirga Grazinyte-Tyla; and the Carnegie debut of Teodor Currentzis and the orchestra he founded, MusicAeterna.
“With the orchestras, there are a huge number of firsts,” Clive Gillinson, the hall’s executive and artistic director, said in an interview.
Rhiannon Giddens, the singer, songwriter, banjo player and musical polymath, will be featured in a Perspectives series in which she will trace the connections between popular and classical songs, team up with other banjo players to explore the experience of African-American women and delve into the complicated history of minstrelsy.
Jordi Savall, the early-music specialist and viola da gamba virtuoso, and Yannick Nézet-Séguin, the music director of the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Metropolitan Opera, will also be featured in series. A festival called “Voices of Hope: Artists in Times of Oppression” will explore musical responses to injustice, and Andrew Norman will hold the Richard and Barbara Debs Composer’s Chair.
Among dozens of offerings, what to hear? This is the best of the best: the performances we at The New York Times are most looking forward to.
Los Angeles Philharmonic, Oct. 7-9
There are three opportunities to hear Gustavo Dudamel conduct the West Coast’s leading ensemble at Carnegie this fall, in the orchestra’s first hall appearance in 30 years. The season-opening gala on Oct. 7 features a brief John Adams fanfare, Grieg (Lang Lang playing the Piano Concerto) and more Grieg (selections from “Peer Gynt”); Oct. 9 brings Mahler’s Sixth Symphony. But in between is the most promising program, with two New York premieres: a curtain-raiser by the young composer Gabriella Smith and Andrew Norman’s Violin Concerto (with the always-fascinating Leila Josefowicz), with the gentle chaser of Ginastera’s “Estancia.” JOSHUA BARONE
City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, Oct. 23-24
Conducting sensation Mirga Grazinyte-Tyla and her orchestra, which is celebrating its centenary this year, give two concerts that perfectly showcase their tastes and flair for programming. One adeptly balances the familiar with the new and unusual, with Ravel’s “La Valse” and Debussy’s “La Mer” framing Mieczyslaw Weinberg’s Violin Concerto and Thomas Adès’s “Angel Symphony,” which they will premiere this spring. The other focuses on British music, with Tippett’s oratorio “A Child of Our Time” following Sheku Kanneh-Mason as the soloist in Elgar’s Cello Concerto. DAVID ALLEN
MusicAeterna, Nov. 4
One of the great stories in classical music over the past decade has been how the Greek-born, Russian-trained conductor Teodor Currentzis formed his own idiosyncratic orchestra in Siberia, garnering a Sony recording contract and triumphing around the world. Their American debut last year at the Shed was one of the major events of the cultural year, and now Currentzis and the orchestra will bring their blistering intensity to Carnegie, with Tchaikovsky’s “Pathétique” Symphony and the Adagio from Mahler’s Symphony No. 10. MICHAEL COOPER
American Composers Orchestra, Nov. 5
As part of Andrew Norman’s composing residency, this ensemble presents the New York premiere of “Begin,” a chamber-orchestra piece first heard in Los Angeles last year. The rest of the program is just as tantalizing, with world premieres by Ellen Reid, Jane Meenaghan and George Lewis. SETH COLTER WALLS
Jordi Savall, Nov. 5 and 9
Four days after Mr. Savall leads his period-instrument orchestra Le Concert des Nations and vocal ensemble La Capella Reial de Catalunya in Monteverdi’s glorious Vespers in Carnegie’s main auditorium, he’ll bring those groups downstairs, to the more intimate Zankel Hall, for Monteverdi’s complete “Madrigals of War and Love,” a rare chance to hear a collection of genre-blurring pieces that altered music history. ANTHONY TOMMASINI
Lise Davidsen, Nov. 12
In the wake of feverish hype in the opera world, the Norwegian soprano Lise Davidsen made her Metropolitan Opera debut this fall in Tchaikovsky’s “The Queen of Spades” and, if anything, surpassed the high expectations. Her silvery voice had both thrilling power and nuanced expressivity. It will be fascinating to hear her in a recital setting; with the pianist James Baillieu, she sings works by Grieg, Mahler, Berg (“Seven Early Songs”) and Wagner (“Wesendonck Lieder”). ANTHONY TOMMASINI
Berlin Philharmonic, Nov. 18-20
When I went to Berlin last year for Kirill Petrenko’s debut concerts as the Philharmonic’s chief conductor, I was struck by the excitement he generated among its players. Now New Yorkers will be able to judge for themselves. This program, featuring the great dramatic soprano Nina Stemme singing Brünnhilde’s Immolation Scene from Wagner’s “Götterdämmerung,” gives him a chance to show off his operatic chops, which he honed during a memorable run at the Bavarian State Opera in Munich. (In a rarity for Carnegie, this program is played twice, on Nov. 18 and 20; on the 19th, the Philharmonic performs Webern, Mendelssohn and Brahms.) MICHAEL COOPER
Ksenija Sidorova, Feb. 3
The Carnegie lineup is full of superb voices, violinists, pianists — the meat and potatoes of classical music. So less conventional instruments pop out, like the accordion played by this Latvian virtuoso. “Revelatory,” according to my colleague James R. Oestreich, Ms. Sidorova will perform arrangements of Bach, Mozart and Tchaikovsky alongside works tailor-made for accordion by Sofia Gubaidulina, Alfred Schnittke and others. ZACHARY WOOLFE
Louisville Orchestra, Feb. 20
Go ahead and call the Louisville Orchestra a “regional” (as opposed to “major”) ensemble. That’s a meaningless distinction for the many people excited by the adventurous programs the dynamic young conductor Teddy Abrams and his excellent players have been giving. For example, the concert they will present at Carnegie will offer Andrew Norman’s “Sacred Geometry,” Copland’s “Appalachian Spring” (with dancers from Louisville Ballet) and Jim James’s song cycle “The Order of Life,” performed with its composer, a Louisville native and the leader of the rock band My Morning Jacket. ANTHONY TOMMASINI
Boston Symphony Orchestra, April 14
For all my worries about the direction that the Boston Symphony has taken under its music director, Andris Nelsons, there have been two pluses during his tenure so far: his Shostakovich survey (steadily being released on record to considerable acclaim) and his opera. A Shostakovich opera, then, ought to come off well, especially this composer’s best, “Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk.” The soprano Kristine Opolais is scheduled as Katerina, with Brandon Jovanovich as Sergey. DAVID ALLEN
Mark Padmore and Mitsuko Uchida, April 16
The tenor Mark Padmore once told me he was reminded of all the words for “rehearsal” when working with the pianist Mitsuko Uchida: “In French, ‘répétition,’ which speaks for itself; in German, ‘probe’ — proving or trying. In English, it has nothing to do with hearing. Its etymology is to till the earth in preparation for seed. Working with Mitsuko, all three of those things, those attitudes to rehearsing, are absolutely present.” Now imagine how they’ll sound in “Dichterliebe” and other Schumann works. JOSHUA BARONE
Alexandre Tharaud, April 18
This is, as always, a good season for piano recitals at Carnegie, with Vikingur Olafsson, Daniil Trifonov, Igor Levit and Jean-Yves Thibaudet all making solo appearances worthy of anticipation. But Mr. Tharaud’s program is particularly intriguing. It bridges the gap between the French Baroque — Couperin, Rameau and the more obscure composers Jean-Henri d’Anglebert and Joseph-Nicolas-Pancrace Royer — and the French early 20th century, with works by Ravel and Reynaldo Hahn that will benefit from this artist’s sensual grace. ZACHARY WOOLFE
Met Orchestra, June 10
It’s been many years since the great mezzo-soprano Waltraud Meier last sang at Carnegie, which makes her return with this superb ensemble — freed from its Lincoln Center pit after the opera season ends — a true event. Wagner’s lush “Wesendonck Lieder” is on the agenda, conducted by Semyon Bychkov, who fills out the evening leading Shostakovich’s “Leningrad” Symphony. ZACHARY WOOLFE

ANCONA – FORM 2019, un’esperienza di suono unica e irripetibile, come recita anche il titolo della stagione sinfonica: Sound experience. Presentata questa mattina in Regione la nuova stagione dall’assessore alla Cultura Moreno Pieroni, con la dirigente regionale Simona Teoldi, il presidente e direttore artistico FORM Carlo Maria Pesaresi e Fabio Tiberi.
“La FORM – ha detto l’assessore regionale al Turismo-Cultura , Moreno Pieroni – anche grazie a una saggia scelta di assetto di molti anni fa, ha saputo mantenere nel tempo il successo delle proposte culturali, con formule qualificanti diventando così il maggior punto di riferimento del sistema musicale regionale, insieme ai Conservatori. Per questo la Regione resta vicino e a sostegno di questa istituzione che si è valorizzata, valorizzando il nostro territorio. I risultati sono sotto gli occhi di tutti e sono sicuro che anche la stagione 2019 confermerà il consenso di pubblico che ha registrato nella scorsa stagione. Il prossimo obiettivo sarà internazionalizzarla sempre di più e le buone premesse ci sono tutte.“
“Gli spettatori che seguiranno i concerti dell’Orchestra Filarmonica Marchigiana si sentiranno avvolti dal suono romantico che caratterizza il ciclo inaugurale, con la Quarta Sinfonia di Schumann e la Quarta Sinfonia “Italiana” di Mendelssohn, dirette da Hubert Soudant, musicista di fama mondiale attualmente Direttore Principale della FORM – afferma Tiberi -; dalla potente energia di due giovanissime artiste lettoni di grande talento, le sorelle Kristine e Margarita Balanas che interpretano, dirette da Alessandro Cadario, una delle opere più amate di Brahms – il Doppio concerto per violino, violoncello e orchestra – e dalla magia dei concerti per pianoforte e orchestra di “mostri sacri” – Bach, Mozart e Beethoven – su cui si misurano due acclamati pianisti marchigiani, Gianluca Luisi e Lorenzo Di Bella”.
“Questo è lo scoppiettante inizio di stagione della FORM che, da sabato 12 gennaio al 18 maggio, porta le sue note nei maggiori teatri della nostra regione: “è la colonna sonora delle Marche – come afferma Carlo Maria Pesaresi -. La FORM ha varato il primo piano strategico triennale e ricordo che è una delle più importante istituzioni a livello nazionale, la più importante a livello regionale. È una infrastuttura culturale a servizio della regione, per produzione di concerti, formazione del pubblico, giovane e adulto, attenzione alle arti che accompagnano la musica. Abbiamo previsto una serie di concerti con una introduzione storico-musicale-artistica curata dal musicologo Cristiano Veroli, prima dell’esibizione”.
Pesaro, Urbino, Fano, Ancona, Jesi, Fabriano, Osimo, Chiaravalle, Falconara, Matelica, Macerata, Civitanova Marche, Fermo, Montegr”anaro e Ascoli Piceno sono i Comuni che ospiteranno l’Orchestra Filarmonica Marchigiana oltre alla trasferte a Roma e Cremona: ben sessantacinque concerti in 5 mesi. “La FORM è un indicatore di civiltà – dichiara Teoldi – che dà stabilità e continuità al settore e sviluppa competenze. È un organismo che ossigena il territorio grazie ai contributi dei vari Maestri e musicisti che si esibiscono in tutto il mondo”.
A febbraio torna il Maestro Hubert Soudant con una entusiasmante avventura “Mozartiana” con l’ Ouverture in do magg. D. 591 “nello stile italiano” di Schubert, la Suite per orchestra n. 4 in sol magg., op. 61 “mozartiana” di Čajkovskij e la Jupiter di Mozart. Quindi la celeberrima “Eroica” di Beethoven, diretta da Alessandro Cadario, sinfonia grandiosa, dal fortissimo impatto emotivo, simbolo musicale legato all’epoca napoleonica eppure di grande attualità per i contenuti etici e i valori assoluti espressi, ruotanti attorno all’idea di eroismo e libertà; e a Marzo il progetto Mahler, straordinario compositore che chiude il Romanticismo e apre al Novecento, con la Sinfonia n.5, proposta dalla FORM nella trascrizione per orchestra da camera di Kalus Simon, affidata alla direzione di Manlio Benzi.
Sempre a marzo i protagonisti sono il virtuosismo, con l’eclettica violoncellista Miriam Prandi e il contrabbassista e direttore Enrico Fagone, impegnati nell’esecuzione di un variegato e accattivante programma di musiche composte da Gentile, Čajkovskij, Bottesini e Mozart; e il fascino intramontabile della musica corale sacra con melodie di Bach, Haydn e Lauridsen, con l’Orchestra che si esibisce insieme a Vocalia Consort di Roma e il Vox Poetica Ensemble di Fermo, diretti da Marco Berrini.
Non passa inosservata la ripresa del programma – Da Bach ai Queen – che vede impegnato Stefan Milenkovich in un tour che fa tappa anche a Cremona per la chiusura della stagione del Teatro Ponchielli. A fine aprile viene fuori l’anima “crossover” dell’Orchestra, con un tributo al grande cantautore-compositore brasiliano Jobim, autore eclettico e sperimentalista dagli interessi musicali che oltrepassano i limiti della bossanova tradizionale, realizzato con la straordinaria partecipazione del più “brasiliano” dei musicisti italiani, il clarinettista Michele Mirabassi e con gli arrangiamenti originali e la direzione di Massimo Morganti.
Quindi la chiusura di stagione con due progetti dedicati a Chopin, interpretati dal giovane pianista russo Nicolay Khozyainov, talento di eccezionale valore, considerato uno dei migliori artisti della sua generazione.
Tra i giovani emergenti anche il programma Talenti-U35 che vede protagonisti il pianista diciassettenne Marco Ottaviani, diplomatosi nel 2018 ma già vincitore di importanti premi di livello internazionale, e il direttore Stefano Pecci, formatosi nella classe di Direzione d’orchestra del Conservatorio Rossini di Pesaro.
L’attenzione alle nuove generazioni è massima, oltre che sul palco, anche in platea; i giovani spettatori, infatti, vengono coinvolti con attività educational, concerti in anteprima e abbonamenti a prezzi simbolici. Nel cartellone pure due eventi speciali, dal titolo Gli ospiti della FORM, con musiche di Gazzè, Bee Gees, Sorrenti, Presley, Mozart, Gershwin, Strauss per il primo concerto e un’immersione nella passione del ballo per il secondo, con Le vie del tango: da Gardel a Piazzolla.
Proseguono le collaborazioni con il Conservatorio G. Rossini per diversi progetti e con l’Università di Ancona per FORM-OFF, I concerti dell’aula magna. Confermati inoltre gli appuntamenti con la Rassegna di Nuova Musica di Macerata e con Civitanova Classica Piano Festival.
I partner sono: Società Amici della Musica “G. Michelli” di Ancona, Fondazione Pergolesi Spontini di Jesi, Ente Concerti Pesaro, Fondazione Teatro della Fortuna di Fano, Associazione Arena Sferisterio di Macerata, AMAT, Associazione Nuova Musica Macerata, Civitanova Classica Piano Festival, TAM – EVENTI, Associazione Spazio Musica, MUSICAMDO Jazz, Società Amici della Musica di Montegranaro, ATGTP, Associazione Antiqua Marca Firmana, Società Filarmonica Ascolana, Concorso “Nuova Coppa Pianisti” di Osimo, Accademia d’Arte Lirica di Osimo, Conservatorio di Musica “G. Rossini” Pesaro, Scuola Civica di Musica “S. Scodanibbio” Macerata, Consorzio Marche Spettacolo.
La stagione è realizzata con il sostegno del Ministero per i Beni e le Attività Culturali, della Regione Marche e dei Soci Fondatori: Comuni di Ancona, Jesi, Macerata, Fermo, Fano, Fabriano.

Record-setting deals in Manhattan Beach and Malibu headline L.A.'s top sales in May
In the month of May, the most expensive homes sold in Los Angeles County included record-setting deals on the Westside and South Bay. Here’s a larger look:
$85 million — Malibu
Music and movie mogul David Geffen sold his oceanfront compound on Pacific Coast Highway for an area-record $85 million. The off-market transaction is the most expensive sale historically in Malibu, public records show, besting the previous high-water mark set four years ago at $74.5 million.
Found along Carbon Beach, an affluent stretch named for its wealthy homeowners, the estate includes a main house, guesthouses and a pavilion/screening room. Gray shingles and white trim give an East Coast vibe to the exteriors.
Outdoors are an oceanfront swimming pool and spa, lawns and a patio.
The property previously made headlines when Geffen, 74, fought the California Coastal Commission over keeping closed the public beach access way next to his compound.
The buyer was ABS Capital Co. LLC, an entity with a Florida-based tax address.
$33.9 million — Bel-Air
A limited liability company tied to Ross Perot Jr., son of the onetime presidential candidate, sold in a deal completed outside the Multiple Listing Service.
The buyer was another entity managed by Andrea Wishom. Wishom is the chief operations office of Skywalker Properties, a private property management company owned by filmmaker George Lucas.
Called Mia Patria, the gated estate was previously owned by film and music producer Freddy DeMann and, before him, former Los Angeles Mayor Richard Riordan.
The Mediterranean-style house features 10,000 square feet of living space that includes a two-story entry, a screening room, a chef’s kitchen, five bedrooms and eight bathrooms.
French doors open to an expansive loggia and patios containing various fountain features. A swimming pool, a pool house/cabana, lawns, gardens and tropical landscaping complete the more than three-quarter-acre setting.
$27 million — Holmby Hills
On Charing Cross Road, the longtime home of film producer and executive Mario Kassar sold to a limited liability company for $2 million less than the asking price of $29 million.
Property records obtained by The Times show that the buying entity is managed by private equity investor and lifestyle entrepreneur Max Fowles-Pazdro.
Built in 1937, the sprawling estate sits behind gates and across from the Playboy Mansion. It includes a traditional-style main house, a swimming pool and spa, a tennis court and a motor court on more than 2 acres of grounds.
A total of five bedrooms and six bathrooms are within nearly 6,600 square feet of living space, according to tax records. French doors lead from the common areas to a brick-lined patio that surrounds the pool.
Jade Mills of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage was the listing agent. Stephen Resnick and Jonathan Nash of Hilton & Hyland, an affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate, represented the buyer.
$21 million — Manhattan Beach
A Craftsman-style home in the 1000 block of the Strand set a price record for the South Bay community with its sale.
Built in 1922, the corner-lot property had been owned by the same family for six decades. It includes a four-bedroom main house and three guest apartments for a total of nine bedrooms and eight bathrooms in about 6,000 square feet.
Balconies and decking extend the living space outdoors. South-facing views take in the Manhattan Beach Pier and surrounding coastline.
The transaction bests the previous high-water mark set in March, when another home on the Strand sold for $18.4 million. To date, there have been a dozen sales of $10 million or more on the oceanfront stretch.
Victoria Beck of RE/MAX Estate Properties and Robert Schumann of Real Estate West were the listing agents. Schumann also represented the buyer.
$20.1 million — Beverly Hills
A former home of actress Marlene Dietrich and pianist Jose Iturbi sold in the 900 block of North Bedford drive for $105,000 over the asking price.
In most cases an above-ask sale would be cause for celebration. However, public records show that the sellers paid $23.5 million for the property two years ago.
The Mediterranean Revival-style house, built in 1926, has 8,790 square feet of living space that includes eight bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms. A guesthouse with two additional bedrooms sits above the three-carriage garage.
A swimming pool and a pool house with his and hers changing rooms lie within more than an acre of grounds. Lawns, mature trees and formal landscaping complete the setting.
Florence Mattar of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage is the listing agent. Mitra Sisatar, also with Coldwell Banker, represented the buyer.

Carnegie Hall’s New Season: Here’s What We Want to Hear
The classical music world has been changing, and some of those shifts will be felt at Carnegie Hall.
Carnegie announced Tuesday that next season would feature the Berlin Philharmonic’s first concerts at the hall under its new chief conductor, Kirill Petrenko; the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra’s first with its music director, Mirga Grazinyte-Tyla; and the Carnegie debut of Teodor Currentzis and the orchestra he founded, MusicAeterna.
“With the orchestras, there are a huge number of firsts,” Clive Gillinson, the hall’s executive and artistic director, said in an interview.
Rhiannon Giddens, the singer, songwriter, banjo player and musical polymath, will be featured in a Perspectives series in which she will trace the connections between popular and classical songs, team up with other banjo players to explore the experience of African-American women and delve into the complicated history of minstrelsy.
Jordi Savall, the early-music specialist and viola da gamba virtuoso, and Yannick Nézet-Séguin, the music director of the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Metropolitan Opera, will also be featured in series. A festival called “Voices of Hope: Artists in Times of Oppression” will explore musical responses to injustice, and Andrew Norman will hold the Richard and Barbara Debs Composer’s Chair.
Among dozens of offerings, what to hear? This is the best of the best: the performances we at The New York Times are most looking forward to.
Los Angeles Philharmonic, Oct. 7-9
There are three opportunities to hear Gustavo Dudamel conduct the West Coast’s leading ensemble at Carnegie this fall, in the orchestra’s first hall appearance in 30 years. The season-opening gala on Oct. 7 features a brief John Adams fanfare, Grieg (Lang Lang playing the Piano Concerto) and more Grieg (selections from “Peer Gynt”); Oct. 9 brings Mahler’s Sixth Symphony. But in between is the most promising program, with two New York premieres: a curtain-raiser by the young composer Gabriella Smith and Andrew Norman’s Violin Concerto (with the always-fascinating Leila Josefowicz), with the gentle chaser of Ginastera’s “Estancia.” JOSHUA BARONE
City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, Oct. 23-24
Conducting sensation Mirga Grazinyte-Tyla and her orchestra, which is celebrating its centenary this year, give two concerts that perfectly showcase their tastes and flair for programming. One adeptly balances the familiar with the new and unusual, with Ravel’s “La Valse” and Debussy’s “La Mer” framing Mieczyslaw Weinberg’s Violin Concerto and Thomas Adès’s “Angel Symphony,” which they will premiere this spring. The other focuses on British music, with Tippett’s oratorio “A Child of Our Time” following Sheku Kanneh-Mason as the soloist in Elgar’s Cello Concerto. DAVID ALLEN
MusicAeterna, Nov. 4
One of the great stories in classical music over the past decade has been how the Greek-born, Russian-trained conductor Teodor Currentzis formed his own idiosyncratic orchestra in Siberia, garnering a Sony recording contract and triumphing around the world. Their American debut last year at the Shed was one of the major events of the cultural year, and now Currentzis and the orchestra will bring their blistering intensity to Carnegie, with Tchaikovsky’s “Pathétique” Symphony and the Adagio from Mahler’s Symphony No. 10. MICHAEL COOPER
American Composers Orchestra, Nov. 5
As part of Andrew Norman’s composing residency, this ensemble presents the New York premiere of “Begin,” a chamber-orchestra piece first heard in Los Angeles last year. The rest of the program is just as tantalizing, with world premieres by Ellen Reid, Jane Meenaghan and George Lewis. SETH COLTER WALLS
Jordi Savall, Nov. 5 and 9
Four days after Mr. Savall leads his period-instrument orchestra Le Concert des Nations and vocal ensemble La Capella Reial de Catalunya in Monteverdi’s glorious Vespers in Carnegie’s main auditorium, he’ll bring those groups downstairs, to the more intimate Zankel Hall, for Monteverdi’s complete “Madrigals of War and Love,” a rare chance to hear a collection of genre-blurring pieces that altered music history. ANTHONY TOMMASINI
Lise Davidsen, Nov. 12
In the wake of feverish hype in the opera world, the Norwegian soprano Lise Davidsen made her Metropolitan Opera debut this fall in Tchaikovsky’s “The Queen of Spades” and, if anything, surpassed the high expectations. Her silvery voice had both thrilling power and nuanced expressivity. It will be fascinating to hear her in a recital setting; with the pianist James Baillieu, she sings works by Grieg, Mahler, Berg (“Seven Early Songs”) and Wagner (“Wesendonck Lieder”). ANTHONY TOMMASINI
Berlin Philharmonic, Nov. 18-20
When I went to Berlin last year for Kirill Petrenko’s debut concerts as the Philharmonic’s chief conductor, I was struck by the excitement he generated among its players. Now New Yorkers will be able to judge for themselves. This program, featuring the great dramatic soprano Nina Stemme singing Brünnhilde’s Immolation Scene from Wagner’s “Götterdämmerung,” gives him a chance to show off his operatic chops, which he honed during a memorable run at the Bavarian State Opera in Munich. (In a rarity for Carnegie, this program is played twice, on Nov. 18 and 20; on the 19th, the Philharmonic performs Webern, Mendelssohn and Brahms.) MICHAEL COOPER
Ksenija Sidorova, Feb. 3
The Carnegie lineup is full of superb voices, violinists, pianists — the meat and potatoes of classical music. So less conventional instruments pop out, like the accordion played by this Latvian virtuoso. “Revelatory,” according to my colleague James R. Oestreich, Ms. Sidorova will perform arrangements of Bach, Mozart and Tchaikovsky alongside works tailor-made for accordion by Sofia Gubaidulina, Alfred Schnittke and others. ZACHARY WOOLFE
Louisville Orchestra, Feb. 20
Go ahead and call the Louisville Orchestra a “regional” (as opposed to “major”) ensemble. That’s a meaningless distinction for the many people excited by the adventurous programs the dynamic young conductor Teddy Abrams and his excellent players have been giving. For example, the concert they will present at Carnegie will offer Andrew Norman’s “Sacred Geometry,” Copland’s “Appalachian Spring” (with dancers from Louisville Ballet) and Jim James’s song cycle “The Order of Life,” performed with its composer, a Louisville native and the leader of the rock band My Morning Jacket. ANTHONY TOMMASINI
Boston Symphony Orchestra, April 14
For all my worries about the direction that the Boston Symphony has taken under its music director, Andris Nelsons, there have been two pluses during his tenure so far: his Shostakovich survey (steadily being released on record to considerable acclaim) and his opera. A Shostakovich opera, then, ought to come off well, especially this composer’s best, “Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk.” The soprano Kristine Opolais is scheduled as Katerina, with Brandon Jovanovich as Sergey. DAVID ALLEN
Mark Padmore and Mitsuko Uchida, April 16
The tenor Mark Padmore once told me he was reminded of all the words for “rehearsal” when working with the pianist Mitsuko Uchida: “In French, ‘répétition,’ which speaks for itself; in German, ‘probe’ — proving or trying. In English, it has nothing to do with hearing. Its etymology is to till the earth in preparation for seed. Working with Mitsuko, all three of those things, those attitudes to rehearsing, are absolutely present.” Now imagine how they’ll sound in “Dichterliebe” and other Schumann works. JOSHUA BARONE
Alexandre Tharaud, April 18
This is, as always, a good season for piano recitals at Carnegie, with Vikingur Olafsson, Daniil Trifonov, Igor Levit and Jean-Yves Thibaudet all making solo appearances worthy of anticipation. But Mr. Tharaud’s program is particularly intriguing. It bridges the gap between the French Baroque — Couperin, Rameau and the more obscure composers Jean-Henri d’Anglebert and Joseph-Nicolas-Pancrace Royer — and the French early 20th century, with works by Ravel and Reynaldo Hahn that will benefit from this artist’s sensual grace. ZACHARY WOOLFE
Met Orchestra, June 10
It’s been many years since the great mezzo-soprano Waltraud Meier last sang at Carnegie, which makes her return with this superb ensemble — freed from its Lincoln Center pit after the opera season ends — a true event. Wagner’s lush “Wesendonck Lieder” is on the agenda, conducted by Semyon Bychkov, who fills out the evening leading Shostakovich’s “Leningrad” Symphony. ZACHARY WOOLFE
