The “Mozart in the Jungle” Season 3 Soundtrack is now available digitally and on CD on Sony Classical on December 9, 2016. The album features original performances by soprano Ana María Martínez and classical artists including Joshua Bell, Plácido Domingo, and Yo-Yo Ma.
The series third season centers on the happenings behind the scenes at the symphony – as new maestro Rodrigo (Gael Garcia Bernal) is stirring things up, maestro emeritus Thomas (Malcolm McDowell) tries to find his footing in his new role, president of the symphony Gloria (Bernadette Peters) seeks to keep it running, while young oboist Hailey (Lola Kirke) hopes for her big chance. Each episode features both original and pre-existing performances of classical music alongside cameo appearances from artists including Gustavo Dudamel, Joshua Bell, Emanuel Ax, and Lang.
The third season opens in the midst of a grand Italian adventure. Rodrigo takes on a brand-new artistic challenge: conducting the great opera diva Alessandra (Monica Bellucci) in her long-awaited return concert in Venice, Italy. He’s swept up in the city, communing with its rich musical history as Alessandra pulls him into a passionate collaboration that quickly becomes operatic in its own right. Hailey travels across Europe with the Andrew Walsh Ensemble, finding it’s not everything that she’d hoped – but discovering a passion for conducting along the way. During the months since the lockout, the symphony has been torn apart. Many of the players can’t be in the same room as each other and tense negotiations have become personal for Cynthia and Gloria. The musicians are challenged to become individuals again, confronting life without their orchestra family at the center. This season will feature cameo appearances from Joshua Bell, Plácido Domingo and Nico Muhly.
