Événement diffusé en streaming: Steven Isserlis, cello & Connie Shih, piano

World-renowned cellist Steven Isserlis follows his summer performances with Joshua Bell and Jeremy Denk on our stage, returning with award-winning pianist and longtime collaborator Connie Shih.

Isserlis has a deep love for Schumann, and the duo’s program includes the composer’s dreamy “Fantasy Pieces,” Kabalevsky’s striking and compelling Cello Sonata, written for Rostropovich, and more before Beethoven’s Third Cello Sonata – the first equal sonata for cello and piano – and a work Isserlis says is “suffused with joy and love of life.”
