1. Itzhak Perlman
October 27 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art
Though he’s inextricably tied to the city, Perlman doesn’t play here often; catch the charming violinist alongside his students in this chamber performance.
2. Jordi Savall
October 29 and 31at Carnegie Hall
Whether leading fellow baroque musicians or playing solo, Catalan viola da gamba player Savall brings a fresh, elegant approach to this ancient instrument.
3. Edgar Meyer
October 31 at Zankel Hall
You’ll look at the bass a whole new way after watching Meyer work its neck; he’s a true virtuoso who manages to gracefully navigate—and blur—all boundaries of style.
