This year marks a landmark year for the Sphinx Organization as we celebrate the conclusion of our 15th anniversary and we are thrilled to welcome the Sphinx Virtuosi back to Carnegie Hall for a spectacular evening performance and celebration. 

The 2012 Sphinx Virtuosi Gala at Carnegie Hall, co-presented by Bloomberg and the Sander and Norma K. Buchman Fund, will take place on Tuesday, October 9th at 6 p.m at Stern Auditorium/Perelman Stage at Carnegie Hall as part of the 5th annual Sphinx Virtuosi national tour. Sphinx is excited to announce that Rocco Landesman, Chairman of the National Endowment of the Arts will attend, signifying the national importance of our mission and work. 

"The Sphinx Organization serves as a much-needed, powerful voice for diversity and excellence in the arts," said Landesman. 

This year's Honorary Chair, word-renowned cellist and virtuoso, Yo-Yo Ma, shared "I am  just in awe of what Sphinx has accomplished, but even more excited about its future."
