NEW YORK—When the artists gets on stage, the first thing they’re asked is: “You could perform anywhere in the world. Why are you here? What are you getting out of this?”
That’s because the musicians invited by soprano Allison Charney to her PREformances series are world-class artists at the top of their games, like NY Philharmonic cellist Carter Brey this season, or violinist Kelly Hall-Tompkins who is kicking off the series on Oct. 22 at Merkin Hall. They present the piece they’re working on to an audience in a not-quite dress rehearsal session.
