Anthony McGill


Hannah Kendall @HannahKendall announced on Twitter:
Nice clip of @mcgillab talking about being the 1st African American principal in the 172-year history of the NY Phil: 
Clarinetist Anthony McGill hails from the South Side of Chicago, which is not usually associated with virtuoso classical musicians. This fall, he’ll become the first African American principal performer in the 172-year history of the New York Philharmonic. He joins us to discuss his rise through the ranks of classical music.
