2019 MUSICAL AMERICA AWARDS

	Daniil Trifonov named Artist of the Year The brilliant Russian pianist is a true virtuoso: All the notes are stunningly in place but also, by turns, gloriously invested with color, expression, and style.
	Composer of the Year: Julia Wolfe Her Pulitzer Prize-winning Anthracite Fields and MacArthur “Genius” fellowship led to a flurry of commissions, including upcoming premieres by the New York Philharmonic and New World Symphony.
	Carlos Miguel Prieto is Conductor of the Year Carlos Miguel Prieto strives to build international bridges by way of classical music. In the words of Yo-Yo Ma, “He is a conductor for our 21st century.”
	Anthony Roth Costanzo named Vocalist of the Year With restless intelligence and passion for communicating through art, Anthony Roth Costanzo wants to do more than just insert himself into available slots. “You have to be a creative spirit and a driving force.”
	Ensemble of the Year: JACK Quartet This group’s fresh and stylistically omnivorous approach to the contemporary repertoire makes it a worthy heir to the Composers Quartet in the 1960s and rivals the Kronos and Arditti Quartets of today.
