The Cheyenne stop is part of a sweeping fall tour across the Mountain West and beyond. The company performs in Norfolk, Nebraska (October 21), Greeley, Colorado (October 24), Colorado Springs (October 25) and Rapid City, South Dakota (October 27) before Cheyenne, then continues to Casper (October 29) and Gillette (October 30) in Wyoming, Billings (November 1), Helena (November 2), Great Falls (November 3), Kalispell (November 5) and Butte (November 6) in Montana, and Missoula (November 8), Coeur d’Alene (November 10) and Spokane (November 11).

The tour later reaches San Francisco’s Curran Theatre on November 20, 2026, and returns in the spring with dates including San Antonio’s Majestic Theatre on March 6, 2027, and Jacksonville’s Florida Theatre on March 30, 2027.

World Ballet Company tours classical story ballets to cities large and small across the United States, bringing full-scale productions — with live orchestral accompaniment at select stops — to audiences far from the traditional ballet capitals.

The season opened on October 9 with the Berliner Philharmoniker, conducted by Kirill Petrenko, joined by pianist Víkingur Ólafsson in a program of Brahms and Strauss — part of the orchestra’s four-concert Carnegie Hall residency that launched the Hall’s 2026–27 season.

Among the season’s highlights, the Orchestra of St. Luke’s performs an all-Berlioz program on November 5, 2026, led by Louis Langrée and starring tenor Benjamin Bernheim in a rare New York appearance, pairing Les nuits d’été with the Symphonie fantastique. On January 19, 2027, Franz Welser-Möst conducts The Cleveland Orchestra and the Cleveland Orchestra Chorus in Beethoven’s Missa solemnis, with soloists Golda Schultz, Taylor Raven, Julian Prégardien, and Anthony Robin Schneider.

The series also carries performances by the Vienna Philharmonic and The Philadelphia Orchestra as part of Carnegie Hall’s season-long Mahler symphony cycle led by Yannick Nézet-Séguin, alongside chamber music programs spotlighting Beethoven and Brahms.

Carnegie Hall Live is hosted by WNYC and WQXR’s John Schaefer, with guest hosts Elliott Forrest and Paul Cavalconte. The series is produced by WQXR in partnership with Carnegie Hall and American Public Media. For the full broadcast schedule, visit carnegiehall.org.
