This year marks a monumental milestone for The Perlman Music Program Suncoast (Perlman Suncoast). It’s the 20th anniversary of one of its largest events: The Perlman Music Program (PMP) Winter Residency. Led by acclaimed violinist and conductor Itzhak Perlman and his wife, Toby Perlman, this two-week event energizes local audiences while providing unparalleled musical training for gifted students ages 12-20+ from all over the world, who play the violin, viola, cello and bass. Lisa Berger, executive director of Perlman Suncoast says that they are “honored to support the PMP Winter Residency for the past two decades. Last year, after a two-year hiatus, audiences were thrilled to watch the transformative interplay once again between young, gifted musicians and world-renowned faculty, including Itzhak Perlman. It’s truly an inspired experience.”
