NESO Music Director Roderick MacDonald will be the featured soloist in Haydn’s trumpet concerto in E-flat major. MacDonald began his career as Principal Trumpet of the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, appointed by Music Director Kurt Masur upon completion of his Masters of Music at New England Conservatory.

With a discography of over 25 recordings with the Gewandhaus Orchestra, he can also be heard on recordings with the Leipzig Baroque Soloists, solo recordings, and numerous other chamber and orchestral albums.
The program will also include perennial favorite Antonin Dvorak’s Symphony number 9, “From the New World.”
