SEE EVENT DETAILS
Violinist Jennifer Koh is recognized for her intense, commanding performances, delivered with dazzling virtuosity and technical assurance. She is dedicated to performing the violin repertoire of all eras from traditional to contemporary, believing that the past and present form a continuum.
Ms. Koh has been heard with leading orchestras around the world and is on the string faculty of New York University’s Steinhardt School of Culture, Education and Human Development. Ms. Koh is also the Artistic Director of MusicBridge, a non-profit organization she founded in 2013 to foster and promote collaborations between artists of diverse disciplines and styles. Pianist Shai Wosner has attracted international recognition for his exceptional artistry, musical integrity and creative insight.
