2019/2020 DAAD Music Fellows
Lukas Akintaya
As we unfortunately had to cancel our 19th
Sound Understanding
concert at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, we would like to at least virtually introduce our current music grant holders who were supposed to perform at the concert. Sadly, most of them will be returning home after this semester is over and hence will not be able to participate in next year’s concert at Carnegie Hall. By sharing their short biographies and a sample of their work, we hope to give you a glimpse of their talent! Please click below to read more about musician

to samples of his music!
