Among the 2024 recipients of the esteemed Avery Fisher Career Grant are the Balourdet Quartet, violinists Njioma Chinyere Grevious and Julian Rhee, pianist Clayton Stephenson, and the Sandbox Percussion ensemble.
In addition to the financial award aimed at advancing their music careers, each winner will have the privilege of utilizing a professionally recorded performance from the award ceremony and will be presented with a specially designed rosette emblematic of the Career Grant.
With the inclusion of this year's grants, a total of 176 Career Grants have been bestowed since the program's inception in 1976.
