The McGill/McHale Trio formed in 2014 when brothers Anthony and Demarre McGill—clarinetist and flutist, respectively—were joined by pianist Michael McHale to perform at Bowling Green University in Ohio. Since then, the acclaimed artists—Anthony was the New York Philharmonic’s first Black principal musician and a social activist who won the Avery Fisher Prize in 2020—have combined their sizable talents in world-class performances imbued with incredible prowess. The group’s first visit to Charlottesville as a trio features a program of sonatas by French composer Francis Poulenc and additional works by contemporary composers including Chris Rogerson and Valerie Coleman.
