As of the time of this writing, there are now being shown two excellent webcasts on WQXR's website via medici.tv. I have no idea how long they will be available for viewing.
The first of these presents, in its entirety, the 2016 Richard Tucker Gala that was recorded live on October 30th at Carnegie Hall. Featured performers include, among others, Renée Fleming, soprano; Joyce DiDonato, mezzo-soprano; Jamie Barton, mezzo-soprano; Javier Camarena, tenor; Lawrence Brownlee, tenor; and the New York Choral Society.
The second webcast features the Juilliard415, the school's early music ensemble, in a performance from WQXR's Greene Space that was recorded yesterday, November 2nd. The program includes selections by Venetian Baroque masters, including Castello, Stradella, Albinoni and Vivaldi. I saw the Juilliard musicians perform these same pieces last week in a recital at Holy Trinity Church and was deeply impressed by the high quality of the performance.
