Howard Gilman Opera House, Brooklyn Academy of Music
A Tribute to Great Cities
Brooklyn Philharmonic
Michael Christie, Music Director
Ute Lemper, Vocal Soloist

The Brooklyn Philharmonic�s third concert in Spano-disciple Michael Christie's inaugural season as Music Director marks the return of chanteuse Ute Lemper to the BAM Howard Gilman Opera House Saturday, April 22 at 8 PM after her triumphant debut with the orchestra last spring. The program includes the New York premiere of composer Heiner Goebbels� Sampler Suite from Surrogate Cities, which is a multi-movement work for orchestra, voices and electronic sampler and pays tribute to the world�s great Gothams. The work artfully merges historic recordings of cantors, the poetry of Cato and an array of orchestral and vocal effects to create a breathtaking aural landscape. Additional pieces on the program range from Heinz Karl Gruber's Manhattan Broadcasts to Astor Piazzolla's Buenos Aires.
