This energetic performance collective comprising Academy fellows has earned accolades for its fresh approach to wide-ranging repertoire. 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.
The Ensemble collaborates with major conductors and artists, from Sir Simon Rattle and David Robertson to Emanuel Ax. As part of The Academy’s mission of bringing music to new audiences, Ensemble ACJW, in partnership with Skidmore College, gives annual performances for the Saratoga Springs community.
