Anthony McGill is the principal clarinetist of the New York Philharmonic and an advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion in classical music. Our Richmond audience may remember Anthony's performance of Mozart's Clarinet Concerto back in January 2020 with the Richmond Symphony.
This weekend, he brings along his musical partner, pianist Gloria Chien, to perform a program of both virtuosic and emotional works, several of which are from their recent release "Here With You."
I hope you enjoy our preview, where you can feel their chemistry which translates so well to the stage. The performance is Sunday, February 5th at 3:00pm. I'll be hosting a pre-concert talk with Anthony and Gloria beginning at 2:00pm and we hope to see you there!
Yours in good music,
Mike Goldberg
