This season, the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center is celebrating his remarkable music as part of its inaugural "Season Composer" series. From last fall's opening concert of his Flutings (played by Paula Robison) to pianist Gary Graffman's New York premiere of For the Left Hand in November, the season-long tribute continues on 1 February with a performance of the composer's Trio No. 2. Next month brings a Kirchner marathon of "strings," when on 3 March, the Orion String Quartet performs Quartets Nos. 1, 2, and 3 and presents the New York premiere of String Quartet No. 4.
