On February 9, Alsop is on the podium at NOSPR for an evening entitled “Latinos and Heroes.” Mid-month Alsop travels to the US, leading the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra in performances of “Time for Three” (February 15-18). In late February, Alsop conducts Beethoven’s Ninth with the Colorado Symphony for the company’s centennial season (February 23-25). 

In March, Alsop returns to Baltimore for the annual Peabody Symphony Orchestra concert in memory of Steven Muller, pacing the orchestra in works by Prokofiev and Rachmaninoff (March 1). On March 15 and 21, she leads two more recital programs at RSO Wien before returning to the US.
