The Piatigorsky Foundation features pianist Mary Au and Katsura Yuasa on the clarinet.

Mary Au is a graduate of the Royal Academy of Music and the University of Southern California. Her collaboration with many renowned artists, including appearances in Columbia Artists Management Community Concerts, has been enthusiastically received. Courted by Chinese officials, Ms. Au performed in the IFEA Award winning Nanning International Arts Festival in China. As a former executive of the GRAMMY Awards, Mary Au continues to dedicate herself to cross cultural boundaries and share her musical fabric with audiences worldwide.

A charismatic and versatile clarinetist, Katsuya Yuasa has been praised by critics as a “born performer with rare ability to express the beauty and soulfulness of the composer’s music” – and have toured in the United States, Europe, South America, and Asia as a concert soloist, recitalist, chamber musician, and orchestral player. Born in Kobe, Japan, he is presently the International Concert Artist of Mu Phi Epsilon (MPE), Piatigorsky Foundation Artist, and Professor of Clarinet at Florida A&M University. He is a founding member of Duo Esplanade (flute, clarinet) and Cosmos New Music (flute, clarinet, violin, cello, piano). An inventive artist, he explores a wide repertoire of classical, jazz, ethnic, pop, rock, and contemporary music.
