Virtual Tour: Europe 2020 Continues with Archival Exhibit on Google Arts & Culture

Today in Virtual Tour: Europe 2020 (May 11–21) — our digital visit to the cultural capitals where the Orchestra would have performed this month if not for the pandemic — we present this online exhibit from the New York Philharmonic Archives, presented in partnership with Google Arts & Culture and narrated by Philharmonic musicians.

Travel across Europe and back in time, from the 1930 booze cruise across the Atlantic to the poem Bernstein penned on the occasion of the Christmas 1989 performance of Beethoven’s Ninth on both sides of the crumbling Berlin Wall.
