IT’S HERE! This landmark event marks 100 years of musical excellence, innovation and inclusion—and we are so excited to celebrate it with you.

Herald, Holler and Hallelujah, a New Jersey Symphony co-commission from the prolific Wynton Marsalis, will kick off this celebratory evening at NJPAC in Newark with an infusion of jazz melodies that will warm and excite all in attendance. The legendary and groundbreaking cellist Yo-Yo Ma will take center stage to masterfully perform the king of cello concertos: Dvořák’s passionate concerto.
To complete this magical evening, dancers from New Jersey Ballet will join the orchestra for a tale of unrequited love in Selections from Ginastera’s Four Dances from Estancia.
