Schlosser Scott Nickrenz Eugenia Zukerman 2017 Gala Patrons (Alexander Nguyen). Dear Friends, Here is the 58th edition of the Young Concert Artists Series! The Gala Opening at Carnegie’s Zankel Hall presents the first accordionist in YCA’s history! Prepare to be dazzled and enchanted! Three more winners – a cellist, a pianist, and a string quartet – each possessing a fresh and unique voice, will debut at Merkin Concert Hall. Four YCA artists return by popular demand to our “encores” series – noontime recitals at the elegant and intimate Gilder Lehrman Hall at The Morgan Library & Museum. The 2018-19 season culminates in the Gala Concert at Lincoln Center, when three brilliant soloists will thrill us with the Orchestra of St. Luke’s. I look forward to seeing you! Yours, Susan Wadsworth “The Young Concert Artists Series – The New York Times sparkles with talent.” Introducing... In 2014, a young girl traveled from Suzhou, China to Copenhagen, Denmark to study with accordion’s most renowned pedagogue and is now the first accordionist in YCA’s history! Music from Bach to today sounds as if it were written for her. The great Russian composer Sofia Gubaidulina writes: “I heard Hanzhi Wang play my piece, De Profundis. The impact of her playing was enormous, even dazzling. Her technical perfection, the phenomenal quality of feeling evoked through the tone and timbre of her instrument, her understanding of the piece, all were incredible. But still, one part of her performance stood apart: her display of the highest levels of inner concentration, so memorable as to affect both the soul and spirit.” GALA Season OPENING THE PETER MARINO Concert Debut HANZHI WANG accordion Guest Artists: TH E ZorÁ STRING QUARTET DECHopol KOWintaWEEWAT and HSUAN-HAO Hsu violins PABLO MuÑOZ SALIDO viola, ZIZAI NING cello M ONDAY, OCTOBER 22 at 8:30 PM ZANKEL HALL at carnegie HALL j.CHS.

For each of them, and for our musical life – Leonard in general, Bernstein this organization fulfills a vital function.” Introducing... Distinctive among today’s young string quartets, the Omer Quartet captured the Gold Medal at the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition in Indiana. Upon winning the 2017 YCA International Auditions, they also captured four performance prizes: concerts at rockefeller university, Tryon Concert Association in North Carolina, as well as the Buffalo Chamber Music Society and Hayden’s Ferry Chamber Music Series (Arizona). Committed to community engagement, they have received a Tarisio Trust Young Artists Grant to inaugurate a Music for Food series in Washington, DC.

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2019/20 Fadi Kheir Fadi LETTERS from the LEADERSHIP
    ANNUAL REPORT 2019/20 Fadi Kheir Fadi LETTERS FROM THE LEADERSHIP The New York Philharmonic’s 2019–20 season certainly saw it all. We recall the remarkable performances ranging from Berlioz to Beethoven, with special pride in the launch of Project 19 — the single largest commissioning program ever created for women composers — honoring the ratification of the 19th Amendment. Together with Lincoln Center we unveiled specific plans for the renovation and re-opening of David Geffen Hall, which will have both great acoustics and also public spaces that can welcome the community. In March came the shock of a worldwide pandemic hurtling down the tracks at us, and on the 10th we played what was to be our final concert of the season. Like all New Yorkers, we tried to come to grips with the life-changing ramifications The Philharmonic responded quickly and in one week created NY Phil Plays On, a portal to hundreds of hours of past performances, to offer joy, pleasure, solace, and comfort in the only way we could. In August we launched NY Phil Bandwagon, bringing live music back to New York. Bandwagon presented 81 concerts from Chris Lee midtown to the far reaches of every one of the five boroughs. In the wake of the Erin Baiano horrific deaths of Black men and women, and the realization that we must all participate to change society, we began the hard work of self-evaluation to create a Philharmonic that is truly equitable, diverse, and inclusive. The severe financial challenge caused by cancelling fully a third of our 2019–20 concerts resulting in the loss of $10 million is obvious.
