The 92nd Street Y hosted concerts by Schiff and by the Hungarian cellist Miklós Perényi last week.
The 92nd Street Y operates in the context of a history that spans over 133 years. Founded in 1874 as the Young Men's Hebrew Association where Jewish men could find harmony and good fellowship, the 92nd Street Y today has evolved into a world-renowned community and cultural center, an organization of exhilarating vitality and remarkable diversity, a proudly Jewish institution that reaches out to people of every race, ethnicity, religion, age and economic class, according to the centre's homepage.
