On November 11th, the American Composers Orchestra will perform the world premiere live performance of José Serebrier’s Symphony No. 3 Symphonie Mystique--a work that has been released already on CD from Naxos--at Zankel Hall at Carnegie Hall. The performance will be repeated on November 13th at the Zellerbach Theater at the Annenberg Center for the Arts in Philadelphia.
