The Kennedy Center Honors are given annually to select performing artists for their lifetime of contributions to American culture. This year, we honor a musician whose music has transformed the world: the inimitable Midori.
The violinist Midori is a visionary artist, activist, and educator whose unique career has been dedicated to exploring and building connections between music and the human experience.
As a leading concert violinist for over 35 years, Midori regularly transfixes audiences around the world, combining graceful precision and intimate expression.
The 2020 Kennedy Center Honors, which traditionally is held in early December each year, was postponed until May 2021 due to the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Utilizing the expanse of the Center’s campus along with virtual events, the 43rd Honors will be re-envisioned and presented in a scaled-back and intimate format aesthetically representative of the distinct time the world is living through.
