Join Anthony McGill and Ashley Becker for an afternoon of American classics! From the jazzy stylings of Copland to the power of Prokofiev, this will be an afternoon to remember. Gardner’s Significant Others is inspired by another giant personality in music: Leonard Bernstein. Gardner describes it as, “a party with a bittersweet streak running through it.” McGill is the Principal Clarinet of the New York Philharmonic, and an active voice for social justice. Becker rejoins the BSO in this collection of iconic works.

Powerful: Gardner says about Significant Others: “We all have many different types of relationships in our lives, through friends, family, and work situations. While those connections may seem very different on the outside, there are often similarities to be found in the nature of our interactions…The overall feeling is bright and joyful, with a clear sense of rhythm and pulse, but a bittersweet streak can be heard as well.”‍

Beautiful: "Ashley Becker [...] brought a lovely, fully supported sound and thoughtful, nuanced phrasing to the role" ~ A. Kozinn, The New York Times

Inspiring: Not only the Principal Clarinetist of the New York Philharmonic, Anthony McGill performed at Barack Obama's 2009 inauguration with Yo-Yo Ma, Itzhak Perlman, and Gabriela Montero.

In a letter to Bernstein, Aaron Copland offered his candid assessment of the symphony: “It’s the best thing of yours I’ve seen so far—more consistent in style and more grown-up in many ways. I like best the beginning and the end.”
