Info:
Anthony McGill's SF Performances debut was a highlight of the 2024 season, prompting the San Francisco Chronicle to proclaim, "The principal clarinet of the New York Philharmonic since 2014, McGill combines tonal splendor with flawless technique." His eagerly awaited return pairs him with pianist and frequent collaborator Gloria Chien, "who appears to excel at everything," according to the Boston Globe, when it named her one of its Superior Pianists of the Year.
Clarinetist Anthony McGill, praised for his "trademark brilliance, penetrating sound and rich character" (The New York Times), is one of classical music's most recognizable and multifaceted figures. He serves as Principal Clarinet of the New York Philharmonic-the first African-American principal in the orchestra's history-and enjoys a dynamic solo and chamber music career.
Taiwanese-born pianist Gloria Chien has one of the most diverse musical lives as a noted performer, concert presenter, and educator. She made her orchestral debut at the age of sixteen with the Boston Symphony Orchestra with Thomas Dausgaard, and she performed again with the BSO with Keith Lockhart.
