Following 556 days of pandemic-inflicted cancellations and unconventional concerts, the New York Philharmonic opened its new season on Sept 17, a "homecoming" for musicians limited to live streams, one-off and outdoor shows for more than a year.

After enduring months of crisis, the Phil, one of America's oldest musical institutions, reopened its subscription season with a programme featuring Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 4, Anna Clyne's Within Her Arms, Aaron Copland's Quiet City and George Walker's Antifonys.
