Masterpieces for the Viola – an evening of chamber music

Tuesday, March 14
7:00 PM

  Violist Rebecca Young joined the New York Philharmonic as its youngest member in 1986. In October of 1993 she won her current position of Associate Principal Viola. She is also principal violist of the All-Star Orchestra, the award-winning PBS TV series that reaches millions via the Khan Academy online educational website.
   Ms. Young is the host and part of the creative team of the New York Philharmonic’s Very Young People’s Concerts, where her philosophy is less to educate the audience than “to make it so much fun that kids and parents alike want to come back!”  This ensemble will be making its European debut in London in April 2017.
   An avid chamber musician, Ms. Young has played with many world-renowned artists, including Isaac Stern, Yo-Yo Ma, Emanuel Ax, Edgar Meyer and Pamela Frank, the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, the Boston Symphony Chamber Players and others.
   The program on March 14 will include works by J.S. Bach, Shostakovich and Brahms. Musicians collaborating with Ms. Young will be announced.
