Top-flight musicians—each a Hancher favorite—perform a perfect program for piano and clarinet.
Emanuel Ax—one of the world’s most revered musicians—has been performing for Hancher audiences since he was a Young Concert Artist. How deep is the relationship? When Hancher needed a new piano for our new facility, we turned to Manny knowing he would select the ideal instrument. Meanwhile, Anthony McGill—principal clarinetist of the New York Philharmonic—first delighted Hancher audiences virtually during our pandemic programming. We have been eager to present him in person ever since.
Together Ax and McGill will present a perfect mix of music for the two instruments—including a work by Jessie Montgomery, Hancher’s 2024–2025 composer-in-residence.
