Joshua Stewart

Battling the walls of @anna_kirsch_scenography at @lamonnaie.demunt ! Maestro @onofri.enrico bringing all the thrill! Why pretend to get squished if you can actually get squished?

‘Idomeneo’ promises to be a stormy production. The first rehearsals are already swirling with the emotions Mozart poured mercilessly into his music. Ready to be swept away? 🌊 📸 S. Van Rompay

Impressionen vom Valentinskonzert mit Alpesh Chauhan und Joshua Stewart! Was für ein unglaublich schöner Konzertabend mit den Düsseldorfer Symphonikern unter der Leitung von Alpesh Chauhan! Das abwechslungsreiche Programm mit Werken aus Klassik, Filmmusik und Jazz sowie der wunderbare Solist Joshua Stewart (Tenor) begeisterten das Publikum im ausverkauften Mendelssohn-Saal! Chauhan moderierte den Abend voller Humor und lud die Gäste ein, in der Pause ihre Valentinsgrüße für ihre Lieben als Instagram-Nachricht an ihn zu schicken. Viele kamen dem Aufruf nach, und die von Chauhan vorgelesenen Herzensbotschaften ließen ein Lächeln und Applaus durch den Saal wandern. :) Ein gelungenes Experiment – ein Abend mit einer ganz besonderen Stimmung. Am Ende dann gemeinsame Standing Ovations aller Gäste – dieses Konzert war wirklich ein Geschenk! #einfachfühlen Fotos: @susannediesner und Emilia Hecke Impressions from the Valentine's Concert with Alpesh Chauhan and Joshua Stewart! What an incredibly beautiful concert evening with the Düsseldorf Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Alpesh Chauhan! The diverse program, featuring works from classical music, film scores, and jazz, along with the wonderful soloist Joshua Stewart (tenor), thrilled the audience in the sold-out Mendelssohn Hall! Chauhan hosted the evening with great humor and invited guests to send their Valentine's greetings to their loved ones via Instagram message during the intermission. Many took up the invitation, and the heartfelt messages read aloud by Chauhan sent smiles and applause rippling through the hall. :) A successful experiment – an evening with a truly special atmosphere. In the end, a joint standing ovation from all guests – this concert was truly a gift! #justfeel #DüsseldorferSymphoniker #JoshuaStewart #Tenor #AlpeshChauhan #Dirigent #Tschaikowsky #Dornröschen #Rachmaninow #Vocalise #Beethoven #Pastorale #Mancini #MoonRiver #Weiss #WhatAWonderfulWorld #JohnWilliams #Gershwin #Summertime #IrvingGordon #Unforgettable #IndianaJones #Chatschaturjan #Spartacus #tonhalledüsseldorf #duesseldorf #concert #klassischemusik #einfachfühlen @alpeshconductor @jsstenor

🌟 GUEST ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: Tenor Joshua Stewart 🌟 Our final classical concert of the season features powerful, uplifting, and joyful music by Beethoven, Dvořák, and Lanier. The Symphony will collaborate with Cabrillo Symphonic Chorus and world-renowned soloists in Beethoven's groundbreaking Symphony No. 9 in D Minor—one of the supreme achievements in the history of music. We're delighted to be joined by tenor Joshua Stewart, who moved and inspired us at his recent recital "Man Without a Home." A Symphony favorite since his stellar performance in the 2025 Mozart’s Requiem concerts, Joshua Stewart’s blend of classical mastery and jazz flair transforms what a modern tenor can be. His extraordinary talent has cemented his place as one of the premier tenors of his generation. “Stewart stood out from the very first for his impressive clarion vocality,” according to Broadway World, and The Stage called him “magnetic and majestic.” Stewart has graced the stages of operas and orchestras around the world, performing for world leaders such as King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden and Presidents George H. W. Bush, William J. Clinton, and Barack Obama. He enjoys a successful career singing both standard and rarely-heard works. 🧡 FREE OPEN REHEARSAL THURSDAY, April 30 at 7:30 PM Civic Auditorium 🌕 EVENING CONCERT SATURDAY, May 2 at 7:30 PM Civic Auditorium ☀️ MATINEE CONCERT SUNDAY, May 3 at 2:00 PM Henry J.

Joshua Stewart studio session

💫 Joshua Stewart captivated Symphony audiences at our Mozart's Requiem concerts last year. The powerful, multifaceted tenor is back on Sunday, April 12 to present Man Without A Home, a deeply personal recital inspired by the culture and legacy of the African diaspora. 🎹 Stewart will be joined by award-winning pianist and composer Courtney Bryan! 🎵 Man Without a Home allows many musical voices to articulate what it means to search for belonging in spaces not originally designed to hold you. Works by Mozart, Saint-Georges, Leoncavallo, and Chaplin sit alongside spiritual and popular song, revealing how beauty, irony, and suffering often coexist. ✨ Together, these works form a musical portrait of a man not without origin, but in continual motion—finding home not as a fixed place, but as an act of singing, listening, and being fully present. 📣 Our Musician Series events sell out fast—get your tickets today! ⏰ WHEN: April 12, 2026 at 2 PM 📍 WHERE: Samper Hall at Cabrillo College 🎟️ TICKETS: Call Cabrillo Box Office at 831-479-6154 or visit the link in our bio 🎶 🎙️ ⭐
