Frank Peter Zimmermann
Conductor Alan Gilbert and violinist Frank Peter Zimmermann spent the past season working closely together. Zimmermann was the official Artist-in-Residence with Gilbert's band, the New York Philharmonic. Gilbert is a big fan of Zimmermann's playing. He says Zimmermann's "musicality is so intense, and his technical ability is so consummate." Zimmermann, Gilbert, and the New York Philharmonic perform Beethoven's Violin Concerto, from a concert in January.
