The Knights are elated to return to the iconic Naumburg Bandshell on Tuesday, June 14, 2022, to present The Kreutzer Project, a program that explores the obsessive, emotional and intellectual worlds that both Beethoven and Leoš Janáček probed with their respective Kreutzer Sonatas. No tickets are required to attend this celebratory outdoor performance with Naumburg Orchestral Concerts. Seating will be offered on a first come first serve basis. The concert will also be broadcast live on WQXR. We hope to see you there!
