Artists On the Bench - with Emanuel Ax / San Francisco Classical Voice interview

Emanuel Ax is notoriously nice - one of the kindest, funniest, genuinely caring people in the business. And, although he is 40 years into a career as one of the world's greatest pianists, both as a soloist and a chamber musician, and although, at 65, he's still inarguably at the top of his game, he maintains a completely genuine sense of modesty, humility, and respect for the hard work, and the great fun, of making music. He comes to San Francisco for two appearances this month, presented by San Francisco Symphony: a solo recital on Sunday January 11 and a special gala performance with the orchestra celebrating Michael Tilson Thomas' birthday on the 15th.  READ THE FULL San Francisco Classical Voice INTERVIEW
