Princeton University Concerts continues its 2011/2012 season with the an ensemble from The Academy, Carnegie Hall's acclaimed fellowship program. If their name is less than memorable, the artistry of this young ensemble is unforgettable. Their mission: to be musical ambassadors to the next generation of audience members by giving back to the communities that nurtured them. Their provenance is sterling: ACJW is a program of Carnegie Hall, The Juilliard School and the Weill Music Institute in partnership with the New York City Department of Education. The Academy is a competitive two-year fellowship program designed to prepare the world's finest young professional musicians for careers that combine musical excellence with teaching, community outreach, advocacy, and leadership. Fellows explore ways to make connections through music on and off the stage. The Ensemble collaborates with major conductors and artists, from Sir Simon Rattle and David Robertson to Emanuel Ax. The group offers its own series at Carnegie Hall, The Juilliard School, as well as the downtown club (Le) Poisson Rouge, recently featuring "one of the most liberating programs I have heard in years," as described by The New York Times' Anthony Tommasini.
