MM cello student Jacques-Pierre Malan (GPD ’12, Cello; GPD ’13, Chamber Music) is a finalist in the Getting to Carnegie competition. The competition was started by Peabody alumnus Julian Gargiulo (MM, ’97) and is described as “the Hunger Games of Classical Music.” The finalists compete January 17 at 7:30pm at Carnegie Hall’s Zankel Hall in New York. Each will perform a movement of Gargiulo’s Cello and Piano Sonata in front of a live audience. It will be the premiere of the cello sonata and the audience will choose the winner.
