Concert Reviews

A stellar concert brought the 2022 edition of YMCG to a close with Beethoven and Dvořák from the past, Yo-Yo Ma from a distance, and much promise for the future.

The Discovery Beethoven Quartet concert featuring three of China's top student string quartets proved one of the most exciting events at 2022's festival.

String quintets and sextets by Beethoven, Dvorak and Schulhoff launched the CMS's 2022 concert schedule.

The renowned foursome presented a Beethoven concert in connection with the 2022 YMCG.

A starry concert event showcased Previn's last composition along with Greig, Fauré and Philip Glass plus new music by Kevin Puts.

The musicians' joy at performing live on stage in a well-tuned concert hall again was visible in their body language as well as audible in their sound.

There's more to Handel and the holidays than the 'Messiah.' A suite from his oratorio 'Judas Maccabeus' featured original instruments and superb soloists.

The Paraguayan classical guitarist paid tribute to female pioneers of the instrument with a rousing solo concert at the 92nd Street Y.

With all the genre-bending acts and projects out there today, there's still no one quite like the Kronos Quartet.

The virtuosity of the Talea Ensemble in conjunction with five genre-bending composers left me feeling inspired and grateful to be both a musician and a concert-going New Yorker more than ever before.
