ABOUT ANTHONY MCGILL

Clarinetist Anthony McGill is one of classical music's most recognizable and brilliantly multifaceted figures. He serves as the principal clarinet of the New York Philharmonic-that orchestra's first African American principal player-and maintains a dynamic international solo and chamber music career. Previous to his New York Philharmonic appointment, he served as Principal Clarinet with the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra and the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra.

McGill is an ardent advocate for helping music education reach underserved communities and for addressing issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion in classical music. He is Artistic Director of Juilliard's Music Advancement Program (MAP), and also a faculty member at Juilliard and at the Curtis Institute. He notably performed at the inauguration of President Barack Obama, premiering a piece written for the occasion by John Williams and performing alongside violinist Itzhak Perlman, cellist Yo-Yo Ma, and pianist Gabriela Montero.
