Carnegie Hall continues its summertime tradition, shining a spotlight on 200+ extraordinary teen musicians from across the country with concerts by the Hall’s three acclaimed national youth ensembles—the National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America (NYO-USA), NYO2, and NYO Jazz. Each ensemble, collaborating with some of the world’s leading artists, takes to the famed Stern Auditorium / Perelman Stage in July. This summer, the Hall celebrates ten years since the launch of NYO-USA and the establishment of its national youth ensembles, which for a decade have provided free training, performances, touring, and cultural exchange opportunities for more than 1,200 teenage musicians across the US.
NYO Jazz—an extraordinary ensemble launched in 2018 showcasing the bright future of American jazz—closes the concerts at Carnegie Hall on Tuesday, July 25 at 8:00 p.m. Led by artistic director and bandleader/trumpeter Sean Jones and featuring Grammy Award-winning and NEA Jazz Master vocalist Dee Dee Bridgewater, the evening’s program will explore big band gems by Duke Ellington, Dizzy Gillespie, and Roy Hargrove and contemporary pieces that explore jazz’s influence on hip-hop, R&B, and pop.
