Tickets are $15 for general admission, $10 for seniors, and $5 for students. Admission is free for NECC students with a college ID.<\/p>\n<p> \u201cMcKinley\u2019s brilliant work was inspired by his visits to New York City for concerts of his music,\u201d said flutist Michael Finegold, ECMP artistic director and an Andover resident.  McKinley lives in Reading.<\/p>\n<p>The program\u2019s 10 movements have charming descriptive titles, such as \u201cFlights of Fancy\u201d, \u201cAll the Little Children Playing\u201d, \u201cHot Nights of Dancing\u201d and \u201cThe Speed of Light\u201d, and an old favorite &#8211; \u201cSidewalks of New York\u201d, is used throughout.<\/p>\n<p>Stoltzman, a Winchester resident, is a two-time Grammy Award winning clarinetist.  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis virtuosity, technique, imagination and communicative power have revolutionized the world of clarinet playing, opening up possibilities for the instrument that no one could have predicted,\u201d Finegold said.<br \/>\n\u201cAndrew Kohji Taylor is expanding an international reputation by captivating audiences with probing musical insight, luminous tone, expressive phrasing and technical mastery,\u201d he added.  Taylor lives in Brookline.<\/p>\n<p>The performance will be a reunion of sorts for Stoltzman, McKinley, and Finegold, who were in the same Yale School of Music graduate class. Kohji Taylor also is a Yale School of Music graduate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTom McKinley has dedicated \u201cStreets of New York\u201d to ECMP and the performers, who will include the excellent cellist Emmanuel Feldman,\u201d Finegold said. Feldman is a Newton resident.<\/p>\n<p>The program also includes \u201cDuo for Flute and Clarinet\u201d by Carl Vollrath, \u201cConcerto a Tr\u00e9 for Clarinet, Violin, and Cello\u201d by Ingolf Dahl, and the \u201cPassacaglia\u201d by Johan Halvorsen.<\/p>\n<p>An audience question-answer period will follow with the composer and players.<\/p>\n<p>For additional information, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecmp.org\">www.ecmp.org <\/a>or contact Michael Finegold at <a href=\"mailto:ecmp314@comcast.net\">ecmp314@comcast.net<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>World renowned clarinetist Richard Stoltzman and virtuoso violinist Andrew Kohji Taylor will join the Essex Chamber Music Players on Sunday, May 19, at 2 p.m. to present the world premiere [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":137,"featured_media":30492,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30490","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.2 -
