GRAMMY-nominated reed sensation Anat Cohen has won hearts and minds the world over with her expressive virtuosity and delightful stage presence. Critics and readers polls consistently name her as the top clarinetist, and the New York Times has called her playing “a revelation.”
Cohen grew up in Israel and brings a truly international spirit to her chosen art form. Now based in New York, she has played with top-level artists from around the world. She will light up the new Desautels Concert Hall with Quartetinho, her quartet of virtuosic Brazilian multi-instrumentalists. Cohen fits right in—the Brazilian press says “Anat is an Israeli who seems like a Brazilian when she plays samba.”
“one of the greatest players ever of the clarinet.”
