ISB / Harmon Lewis Collaborative Keyboard Artist Grants

Harmon Lewis

The world of music, especially our double bass community, lost the world-renowned pianist and organist Harmon Lewis on January 11, 2023. He was best known for the past 52 years as a member of the Karr-Lewis Duo. Harmon helped advance the double bass as a solo instrument through the dozens of popular recordings he made with his professional and life partner Gary Karr, encompassing the depth and breadth of double bass solo and chamber repertoire, and performing on recital stages around the world.

To remember Harmon, the ISB is proud to announce the ISB / Harmon Lewis Collaborative Keyboard Artist Grants program. These grants of up to $1,000 will help double bassists hire collaborative keyboard artists for their own public performances and recording projects.
