Acclaimed pianist Katya Grineva will return to Carnegie Hall for her “A Classical Holiday” concert for one night only, Friday, December 26, 2025, at 8:00 p.m. Celebrating her 23rd Stern Auditorium appearance, Katya has performed at the venue more than any other female artist. In what has become a seasonal tradition for local New York City families and tourists alike, Katya’s festive concert is a highlight of the holiday season.

Performing works from her holiday album A Classical Holiday, Katya showcases new arrangements of Christmas classics including The Nutcracker, My Favorite Things, and more. Drawn to spirituality and mysticism, Katya’s poetic style brings a different ethereal dimension to this holiday concert. This year’s program includes the mystical O choruscans lux stellarum by Von Bingen, Gershwin’s Embraceable You, the rarely played Liszt Legendes, and more.

About Katya Grineva

Born in Moscow, Katya began studying piano at the age of six, attending the Moscow Music School. She went on to the Moscow High School of Music under the aegis of the prestigious Moscow Conservatory, where she studied with Professor Pavel Messner. In New York, she was awarded a scholarship to immediately enter the Mannes School of Music graduate program, studying with Nina Svetlanova, followed by private coaching with Vladja Mashke, who played a key role in the young pianist’s development. Katya made her American debut in 1993 with the Baltimore Symphony. In 1998, she made her Carnegie Hall debut. In 2006, Katya was chosen to exclusively perform and record the world premieres of piano sonatas by romantic Viennese composer Marcel Tyberg. In 2023, she had the distinct honor of opening the new Field Arts & Events Hall in Port Angeles, Washington.

(New York, NY) — Renowned composer, pianist, and musical storyteller
Randy Edelman will return to Carnegie Hall on December 19, 2025, marking
his second headline performance at the world-famous venue. Following his
celebrated and critically praised appearance at Lincoln Center this past June,
Edelman now brings his cinematic mastery, signature sound, and holiday
spirit back to one of the most prestigious stages on the planet.

Edelman’s upcoming concert, Randy Edelman: A Celebration in Music, will
be an expansive journey through the melodies that have defined his legendary
career—film scores that have shaped generations, chart-topping hits that have
traveled the globe, and newly re-imagined compositions that continue to
showcase his inexhaustible brilliance. Known for his breathtaking themes
from Gettysburg, The Last of the Mohicans, Dragonheart, My Cousin Vinny,
27 Dresses, and dozens more, Edelman’s music has become the emotional
architecture of modern cinema.

His return to Carnegie Hall symbolizes both a milestone and a continuation.
Edelman first performed a solo concert at the Hall in 2023, delivering a night
that sold out and received national acclaim for its artistry, warmth, and
emotional depth. The December 19th performance builds upon that legacy,
offering fans and newcomers alike a night of musical storytelling just days
before the holidays—an evening designed to uplift, inspire, and ignite the
imagination.

Earlier this year, in June, Edelman took the stage at Lincoln Center, where he
delivered a dynamic, career-spanning concert that reaffirmed his status as one
of America’s most treasured melodic architects. The performance was hailed
for its majesty, humor, and heartfelt tributes, capturing the full scope of
Edelman’s influences and achievements.

Now, as he prepares to once again grace Carnegie Hall, Edelman promises a
performance that is both intimate and grand—a rare fusion only he can
deliver. The evening will include unforgettable film themes, beloved original
songs, new arrangements crafted exclusively for this concert, and special
moments that celebrate his profound relationship with New York City and its
audiences.

“There is nothing quite like playing Carnegie Hall,” Edelman has shared.
“The room itself sings back to you. It becomes part of the story.”

Tickets for Randy Edelman at Carnegie Hall — December 19, 2025 are
available through Carnegie Hall’s official box office and online ticketing
platforms.

About Randy Edelman:
Randy Edelman is an award-winning composer and recording artist whose
music has graced over 100 major motion pictures, television series, and
global events. His body of work spans decades and generations, earning him
some of the industry’s highest honors and a devoted worldwide fanbase. His
live performances are celebrated for their emotional resonance, wit, and the
magical way he connects with audiences through both music and storytelling.

The endowment empowers a new generation of professionals committed to values-driven leadership at this pivotal moment in world affairs

New York, NY – January 16, 2025 – Today, Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs announced a transformational gift from the Uehiro Foundation on Ethics and Education to establish the “Uehiro–Carnegie Endowment for Future Generations.” The Uehiro Foundation gift builds upon the Council’s recent project to establish its Global Ethics Hub in New York City. The new Uehiro endowment will create novel educational programs and global-scale engagements for next generation leaders. This vital work furthers Carnegie Council’s over 100-year legacy of empowering ethical reflection, analysis, and action.

“Humanity has never been more connected yet more fractured,” said Joel Rosenthal, president of Carnegie Council. “New ethical issues are emerging rapidly, fed by intense polarization, the development of novel technologies, and concern for the core principles of democracy and international cooperation. We are grateful to the Uehiro Foundation for this extraordinary gift, which will inspire a new generation to use the power of ethics to build a better world.”

The grant enables a renewal of Andrew Carnegie’s vision for mobilizing the world’s intellectual and financial resources in the service of peace, education, and moral leadership—a vision that has guided Carnegie Council for more than a century. Such work is essential today as an old order fades, and a new order is struggling to emerge.

In response to this moment, the endowment will focus on applied ethics as a tool for the professional and personal development of next generation leaders. Together, Carnegie Council and Uehiro Foundation fellows, staff, and global partners will provide access to ethics-focused education and programming to assess key moral questions, navigate difficult decisions and tradeoffs, and examine values and interests in an interconnected world.

The endowed partnership builds on a twenty-year collaboration between Carnegie Council and the Uehiro Foundation dedicated to international convenings, ethics, and education. The following statement released today by the Uehiro Foundation touched on the deep history between the two organizations: “Over the years, we have become genuine partners as ‘the voice of ethics’ in international affairs. The Uehiro-Carnegie Endowment for Future Generations will enable us to work together more effectively, with united strength, in pursuit of our common mission.”

About Uehiro Foundation: 

Founded in 1987, the Uehiro Foundation on Ethics and Education is a nonprofit foundation committed to the advancement of moral education in Japan. The Uehiro Foundation is a benefactor of the Uehiro Oxford Institute at the University of Oxford and the Uehiro Center for Advancement of Oceanography at University of Hawaii at Manoa. The Uehiro Foundation has also supported ethical research at higher education institutions in Japan such as University of Tokyo, Kyoto University, Tohoku University, and Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology.

About Carnegie Council:

Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs is an independent 501(c) (3) nonprofit institution that works to empower ethics globally by identifying and addressing the most critical ethical issues of today and tomorrow. Founded by Andrew Carnegie over a century ago, Carnegie Council sets the global ethical agenda by convening leading experts, building active communities, producing agenda-setting resources, and catalyzing the creation of ethical solutions to global problems.
