New York Phil Free Webcasts on Medici.tv
The New York Philharmonic has put on concerts in some pretty far-flung places over the past few years. Fortunately, for those who who couldn't make it to Pyongyang in 2008, or Dresden's Volkswagen Transparent Factory last year, Medici.tv will be webcasting these and three other memorable performances starting this Sunday as part of its "I ♥ New York Philharmonic" festival. The best part: they're all free, and will be available on demand until November 3. Full schedule below:
