Philadelphia Orchestra
OUT OF TOWN Those Fabulous Philadelphians tend to lean hard on popular showpieces and time-tested warhorses in their summertime residency, and this year’s slate proves no exception. Even so, a celebration of the omnipresent Bernstein centennial promises to be well worth the trip upstate: the brilliant violinist Jennifer Koh will make her Saratoga début in the blithe “Serenade (After Plato’s ‘Symposium’),” in a concert that also features music from “On the Waterfront” and “West Side Story”; Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts.
