Description

92Y's performing arts program was created in the mid-1930s under the leadership of Dr. William Kolodney. Presenting concerts of classical, jazz and popular music of the highest quality and poetry and literature readings given by the premier writers of our time, 92Y continues to flourish as one of the country's oldest and largest cultural centers.

When the Kaufmann Concert Hall was completed in 1930, it quickly gained a reputation as the best chamber music hall in the city. Its warm wood paneling and intimate design became home to the Budapest String Quartet for nearly 30 years, where they played to consistently packed houses. In the ensuing decades, 92Y presented the likes of Andres Segovia, Arthur Schnabel, Jascha Heifetz, Alan Jay Lerner, Rudolf Serkin, Isaac Stern, Claudio Arrau, Jean-Pierre Rampal, Sarah Vaughan, Emanuel Ax, Yo-Yo Ma, and Jaime Laredo, who began the distinguished Chamber Music at 92Y series in 1974.

Today, 92Y presents over 80 concerts each season, featuring a richly diverse program of chamber music, solo recitals, jazz, the American Songbook and family concerts tailored to specific ages.
