Eight-time GRAMMY® Award-winning pianist Emanuel Ax is renowned for his poetic temperament, deeply felt interpretations, and unparalleled virtuosity. Whether performing a timeless sonata or premiering a new work, his artistry reflects a profound love for music and its power to inspire. As The New York Times declares, Ax’s performances are “never less than spellbinding.”

A beloved favorite of Princeton audiences, Ax first performed at McCarter in 1981 and continues to captivate with his masterful musicianship. 

Program (subject to change) includes works by Beethoven, Poulenc, Debussy, and Schumann.

ARRIVE AT 7PM that evening and gather with other Harvard alumni in the lobby of the Matthews Theater for good conversation before the 7:30PM performance.  Wear crimson so we can easily find each other.
