New York’s Younger Live performance Artists organisation (YCA) has introduced a gala live performance to honour Deborah Borda, outgoing President and CEO of the New York Philharmonic.
The occasion will happen on Monday, Might 8 at Jazz at Lincoln Heart.
We can not keep in mind any previous supervisor of a New York Phil who has been honoured by a talent-nurturing org.

“For 60 years, Younger Live performance Artists has enriched the musical world by creating contexts during which gifted younger musicians can develop their artwork. YCA has helped domesticate the careers of so a lot of in the present day’s main performers, together with members of the New York Philharmonic, and its affect will solely develop with Paul Sekhri’ s arrival as a visionary new Chair. It’s a profound honor to be acknowledged by such a forward-looking group, particularly since we share a dedication to amplifying the voices of rising musicians and, by way of such motion, empowering the way forward for our artform.” Deborah Borda, CEO of the New York Philharmonic, and YCA Gala Honoree
