The New York Philharmonic was founded in 1842 and has been a pioneer in the music world through several historic events. It has an orchestra of world-class musicians from around the globe led by Concertmaster Glenn Dicterow. The Philharmonic has mastered fundamental and orchestral techniques like dynamics, phrasing, coordination, and expression that allow them to perform different styles like solo and orchestral works as one cohesive unit, such as balancing sound and controlling dynamics to convey emotion in Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 1.
