MMArtists in Concert

Edward Arron, artistic coordinator

"You could not have asked for a more engaging performance or a more rewarding concert." —Anthony Tommasini, The New York Times

The critical raves don't stop: "strong," "dynamic," "brimming with youthful fire and assurance." The Metropolitan Museum Artists in Concert has received critical acclaim well beyond its young age, not only for "bring[ing] solo quality to ensemble playing," but for the inviting nature of the events. "Connections play an important part in this fine ensemble's programs," noted The New York Times, "[and] so do communication and enthusiastic advocacy."
