Anthony McGill is the first Black principal player in the New York Philharmonic. He performs Sunday, September 20, 2020 for the Denver Friends of Chamber Music, then joins in a conversation about music and social justice with The Spirituals Project at The University of Denver. McGill's Facebook post performing "American The Beautiful" in a minor key and then kneeling at the end has inspired other artists to #TakeTwoKnees to promote racial and social justice within the classical music and arts community.
